Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Manufacturer¿s ref.No: (b)(4).The purpose of this mdr submission is to report the investigational finding of the returned device.The complaint product was returned and received for evaluation and analysis.The investigation is documented below.Investigation summary: a non-sterile 90 cm cerebase straight distal access (da) guide sheath was received contained in the decontamination pouch.Visual inspection was performed.The middle body of the catheter shaft was severely damaged.The shaft jacket was separated from the internal braid and multiple kinks were found on the remaining shaft jacket.The luer hub of the catheter was attached to a rotating hemostasis valve (rhv).The rhv was able to be fastened correctly at the luer hub.Only when excessive force was applied while fastening the rhv, the thread was stripping from the connector.The reported issue regarding the incompatibility of the rhv with the luer hub of the catheter cannot be confirmed, since the valve was able to be fastened to the luer hub.Functional analysis determined that applying excessive force or torque to the valve may cause the threads to become stripped, leading to separation from the connector.The additional damages on the shaft jacket were not originally reported, therefore, are not considered related.A review of manufacturing documentation associated with this lot (31756110) presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection processes related to the reported complaint.There were no internal actions related to device manufacture or inspection.As part of johnson & johnson medtech quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.It should be noted that product failure could be caused by multiple factors.The instruction for use (ifu) contains the following caution: exercise care in handling the intermediate catheter to reduce the chance of accidental damage.Based on the manufacturing documentation review, there is no indication that the event is related to the device manufacturing process.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended for statistical signals and corrective / preventive action may be triggered at a later time.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.Updated sections: b.4, g.3, g.6.H.2, h.3, h.6, and h.11.The manufacturer will submit a supplemental report if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.Additional information will be submitted within 30 days of receipt.
