Event Description
|
It was reported that during use of the bd insyte¿ autoguard¿ shielded iv catheter the operator cannulated a patient's peripheral vein, but the catheter migrated into the patient's vein.The operator reports that there were no wing (and needle hub?) in the package or the work table.As a consequence there stays that the surgical intervention was needed.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: the operator cannulated a patient's peripheral vein, but the catheter migrated into the patient's vein.The operator reports that there were no wing (and needle hub?) in the package or the work table.As a consequence there stays that the surgical intervention was needed.The user notified the event to the authorities.The customer reports no issue with other devices from the sample lot.Please note i received the fax and i need to come back to the customer.If the hub and wings are missing the device shouldn't be used.From the description i see the catheter was "lost" in the vein and the consequence was the surgical intervention.Information received on 03/15: our sales rep.Met the customer: here below what he reported.What is happened is not clear: the catheter seems to have detached from the hub and it does not seem to be cut.The hcp realized it when he activated the safety mechanism.The activation cause the detachment of the hub leaving the catheter in vein with blood leakage.They did acupressure to stop the blood leakage: the catheter has been inadvertently pushed in the vein and they were not able to get it out.They use ultrasound to confirm the presence of the catheter in the vein.3 hcps and the patient confirmed this description.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
Investigation: during dhr review all required challenge samples, set-up and testing was conducted per specifications and in accordance with the in-process sampling plans.There were no indications of reject activity throughout the build of this lot that would impact the outcome of the quality of the product relevant to the reported defects.The reported defects were not identified or confirmed and a definite root cause could not be established as no units were provided for this incident.Without the actual sample(s) for evaluation and testing there was no physical/mechanical evidence to confirm or support manufacturing process related issues that would contribute to the alleged defects.
