Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation summary: no samples were received for evaluation.Over a period of more than 10 years, no test result from samples returned due to ineffective anesthesia has ever failed to meet specifications.The causes of ineffective anesthesia have been well documented in clinical literature for many years.Whereas a strong history of testing has supported that drug potency is not the cause, the actual cause may not always be ascertained.Bd has a long history of test results to support that drug potency issues have not been the cause of ineffective anesthesia events reported to bd through the complaint system.As a preventive action, the vendor of the applicable drug component (hospital / pfizer) will be notified of the reported failure mode from the customer.Likewise, the complaint will be entered into the complaint management system and will be tracked & trended for future occurrences and reviewed/investigated through the quality data analysis (qda) process if an adverse trend is identified.A device history record review of all applicable manufacturing records for lot 0001283015 did not identify any issues that may have contributed to the reported failure mode.Root cause is undetermined.
