The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, frequency analysis, applicable previous investigation(s), sample (if available), applicable fmea documents, labeling, and applicable manufacture records.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint of a cracked connector on the returned drainage catheter was confirmed, but the root cause of the damage was unknown.One 8fr locking pigtail drainage catheter was returned for investigation.The product appeared to be used.The white connector was cracked into four loose fragments.Usage residue was observed on the connector fragments.The fractured surfaces of the white connector were jagged and uneven.While the damage reportedly occurred during use, the exact cause of the cracked material was not determined.No further action is required because the reported event could not be related to a deficiency in product manufacture or deficiency while under correct product use.A lot history review (lhr) review is not possible, as no manufacturing lot number has been provided by the complainant.
