    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THIS WAS IDENTIFIED AT A TRAINING OPERATION WITHIN THE US MILITARY. NO PATIENT INVOLVEMENT. REFERENCE MDR NO. 3008258694-2021-00001. INITIAL MDR ASSESSMENT WAS COMPLETED AND DETERMINED NOT TO BE REPORTABLE BASED ON CUSTOMER USAGE (TRAINING EXERCISE) AND NO PATIENT IMPACT. HOWEVER, A FIELD ACTION WAS INITIATED AND IN AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION WE REEVALUATED OUR MDR ASSESSMENT AND ARE FILING THIS REPORT. COMBAT MEDICAL RECEIVED A COMPLAINT THAT THE BLOOD PACK NEEDLE WERE FOUND BENT UPON OPENING THE CONVENIENCE KIT. THE ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED TO BE ONE COMPONENT (A STAND ALONE DEVICE) WITHIN THE CONVENIENCE KIT: BLOOD PACK, SINGLE UNIT, R80-808. INVESTIGATION HAS SHOWN THAT THE CURRENT ASSEMBLY PROCESS HAS THE POTENTIAL OF BENDING/DISCONNECTING THE NEEDLES USED IN THE AFFECTED KITS. THE INFLUENCE OF THE VARIATION OF THE NEEDLE POSITION WITHIN THE COMPONENT (BLOOD PACK, SINGLE UNIT, 450 ML (R80-808)), COUPLED WITH THE MANUAL ASSEMBLY PROCESS OF FOLDING THE BLOOD PACK IS CAUSING NEEDLE DAMAGE IN THE FINISHED PRODUCT.
