The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, applicable previous investigation(s), sample analysis, applicable fmea documents, applicable manufacturing records, and labeling.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint of difficult guidewire insertion could not be confirmed from the sample provided.One 70 cm guidewire within the hoop and one introducer needle were returned for investigation.No apparent damage or material deformation was observed with the guidewire.The guidewire was inserted through an 18 ga introducer needle and was able to pass through without issues.The outer diameter of the guidewire was measured and found to be within manufacturing specification.Microscopic observation of the needle bevel revealed material deformation consistent with damage caused by retraction of the guidewire against the needle bevel.Guidewire retraction against the needle bevel may have been contributed to the alleged event; however, the exact cause of a rough insertion could not be determined.A lot history review (lhr) of reds1423 showed no other similar product complaint(s) from this lot number.
