Manufacturer Narrative
|
H 3: the device history record (dhr) for the reported lot indicates that no issues were found in visual and physical samples inspected from the lot.A review of maintenance records and calibration records were reviewed and there were no issues.All scheduled maintenance and calibration activities were completed.Samples were submitted with this complaint as well as pictures which confirmed the reported issue.There is no documented evidence within the dhr or any other documentation that would explain the reported condition.The most likely cause would be due to a loading issue as the cracked barrels also exhibit abrasions near the finger rests of the syringe.This is indicative of the positioning foot not contacting the finger rests as intended.This is the most likely cause as this failure can be self-correcting.The investigation did not identify a systemic issue with the product or process, no trend exists for the failure mode, and a specific root cause could not be identified based on available information.Therefore, a corrective and preventive action (capa) is not necessary at this time.This information will be utilized for trending purposes to determine the need for corrective actions.
