The account reported that the fem angio drape was "a lot tackier/sticky" and that the team had to use several techs to assist with unfolding the drape.A photo and a sample were received for the investigation, including a video and a physical sample for one unused drape; the rest of the pack was not available, and finished good production records and finished good pack build were reviewed with no issues identified that contributed to the reported issue.Based on review of the video and physical sample, the drape exhibited resistance during handling and, upon unfolding, the adhesive was difficult to separate without damaging the component.The root cause is considered to be a vendor product issue relating to the component manufacturing process, and the division will monitor this issue for trending purposes.There were no reports of death, serious injury, medical intervention, or follow up care.It has been determined that the reported event could cause or contribute to serious injury if it were to occur again.In an abundance of caution, this is a reportable event.If additional information becomes available this report will be reopened and reevaluated.This medical device report (mdr) is being submitted as part of retrospective review activities, which include review of historical data in accordance with regulations at 21 cfr part 803.The information included in this mdr reflects the information reasonably known to the manufacturer at the time of this retrospective review and submission.
