Event or Problem Description
It was reported that "(b)(6) 2025, in icu, the hospital found needle leak during use on the patient." there was no medical intervention required.The patient's current condition is reported as "fine".
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Qn# (b)(4).The customer provided one video for review.The customer also returned one 18-gauge introducer needle was returned by the customer for inspection.Evidence of prior use was observed within the needle cannula.Visual inspection identified a crack in the needle hub.Subsequent microscopic examination confirmed the presence of the o bserved damage.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.The ifu provided with the kit informs the user, "some disinfectants used at catheter insertion site contain solvents which can weaken the catheter material.Alcohol, acetone, and polyethylene glycol can weaken the structure of polyurethane materials.These agents' may also weaken the adhesive bond between catheter stabilization device and skin.Do not use acetone on catheter surface.Do not use alcohol to soak catheter surface or allow alcohol to dwell in a catheter lumen to restore catheter patency or as an infection prevention measure.Do not use polyethylene glycol containing ointments at insertion site.Take care when infusing drugs with a high concentration of alcohol.Allow insertion site to dry completely prior to skin puncture and before applying dressing.Do not allow kit components to come into contact with alcohol.".The customer report of a cracked hub was confirmed through complaint investigation.Visual inspection revealed a crack on the needle hub.The failure mode identified is consistent with the failure mode investigated per a previously opened capa.Based on the capa investigation, the root cause of this complaint is design related.Teleflex has identified that this needle hub material is susceptible to cracking when placed under stress (i.E.Pressed onto a tapered luer fitting, sideloaded as the clinician attempts to locate a vessel, etc.) in the presence of liquid alcohol-based disinfectants.A capa was implemented using a new alcohol-resistant material to manufacture the needle hub.The needle hub from this complaint was confirmed to be made from the old needle hub material.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
