Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant/reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.The complaint of a leak is inconclusive due to the state of the returned sample.One photograph of a safestep infusion set was returned for evaluation.An initial visual observation of the photograph showed a safestep infusion set.Due to the quality of the returned photograph, no evidence of a leak or damage was observed on the infusion set.Inspection of the returned photograph was insufficient to identify the alleged issue or a root cause of the reported issue.Therefore, this complaint is inconclusive at this time.This complaint will be recorded for future trending and monitoring purposes.
