Investigation summary: 45 representative samples were returned for investigation.A quality engineer inspected the returned units and could not identify any manufacturing related defects or abnormalities.Tip of the catheter was observed for catheter tip integrity.No catheter tip integrity was observed.The samples were subjected to cannula penetration test.All the representative samples passed the cannula penetration test.A device history record review was performed and showed no non-conformances associated with this issue during the production of these batches.As a result, the root cause of the reported issue could not be determined.Customer complaint trends are evaluated on a monthly basis.If the trend of a specific type of complaint warrants a formal corrective action, resources will be assigned at that time.
