(b)(4).The details of the complaint were reviewed.The customer returned one unit of proximal catheter for evaluation.The report of a cracked luer hub was confirmed through investigation of the returned sample.Visual analysis revealed a crack on both red and blue arterial hub.The returned device failed functional testing, and a leak was confirmed on the red arterial luer hub.A device history record review was performed, and one finding was observed that is similar to the failure of the reported complaint.It was determined that the observed damage is consistent with damage due to alcohol exposure.Based on the customer report and the sample received, the probable cause is likely design related.Further investigation has been initiated under teleflex quality systems to evaluate this issue.
