Manufacturer Narrative

The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, trend 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 occluded catheter is inconclusive, poor sample condition.The sample returned was one photograph.The photograph appears to show two sections of blood product accumulation placed on top of a gauze pad.No device is shown.As the photo shows what appears to be clotted blood, but it is not clear where the clotting has taken place or what caused it, the complaint is inconclusive due to poor sample condition.A lot history review (lhr) review is not possible, as no manufacturing lot number has been provided by the complainant.
