Investigation summary: our investigation was unable to procure either a sample or photo of the affected device.Our investigators reviewed the batch record, raw material process, and sterilization process; no abnormalities were noted in the documentation.There are many factors that can lead to the phlebitis such as chemical phlebitis caused by the infusion of drugs, the repeated infusion into a vein, undetected puncture through vessels, or a patients reaction to the drugs being infused.Unfortunately, without the physical sample for review our investigators could not determine the root cause at this time.
