One sample from each of the reported lot numbers was returned to flks for ftir analysis.As per request, all returned samples were examined an all exhibited clear droplets of material on the surface of the catheter.A small portion of this material was removed from a representative sample and prepared for ftir spectral analysis.The spectral analysis shows that this material is silicone.A lot history review was carried out and no related non conformances were raised in association with this packaged lot concluding all inspections were performed per the applicable operations and met qc specifications.Investigation conclusion: based on the investigations conducted for complaints of excess silicone of angiocath, it has been found that the root cause of this on the catheter is caused by the excessive amount of silicone that is dispensed during the catheter siliconization process.
