Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The reported event was inconclusive due to poor sample condition.Visual evaluation of the photo sample noted one opened (with original packaging), lubrication gel syringe from a tray kit.Visual inspection of the sample noted that the syringe was aspirated and only partially full of lubrication material.No leakage in the tray or on the exterior of the syringe was visible.It therefore cannot be determined without the physical sample whether gel leaked from the syringe or not.The lot number is unknown; therefore, the device history record could not be reviewed.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: ¿bard® ez-lok® sampling port (indicated by the blue stem in the port) accepts luer lock or slip tip syringes 1.Occlude drainage tubing a minimum of 3 inches below the sampling port by kinking the tubing until urine is visible under the access site.2.Swab surface of bard® ez-lok® sampling port with antiseptic wipe.3.Using aseptic technique, position the syringe in the center of the sampling port.Press the syringe firmly and twist gently to access the sampling port.4.Slowly aspirate urine sample into syringe and remove syringe from sample port.5.Unkink tubing if necessary and transfer urine specimen into specimen cup or follow hospital protocol.Discard syringe according to hospital protocol.6.Follow established hospital protocol for specimen labeling and transport to lab." h11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
