    DEVICE EVALUATION SUMMARY: VISUAL INSPECTION SHOWS THE RED HEMOSTASIS CAP IS LOOSE ON THE DEVICE. THE RED HEMOSTASIS CAP AND THE 3/8 INCH CONNECTOR WERE MEASURED AGAINST THE SPECIFICATION. RED HEMOSTASIS CAP - CIRCLED ID WAS MEASURED USING AN OGP TO BE 0.389 INCHES, THE SPECIFICATION, 06565 HAS THE ID TO BE 0.360 TO .0390 INCHES. NOTE: THE OUTER ID WAS MEASURED TO BE 0.479 INCHES, THERE IS A LARGE TAPER CAUSING THE CAP TO BE LOOSE. THERE IS NO SPECIFICATION FOR THIS LOCATION. 3/8 INCH CONNECTOR - FIRST AND SECOND BARB OD WERE MEASURED USING AN OGP TO BE 0.453 AND 0.472 INCHES, THE SPECIFICATION, 07837 HAS THE OD'S TO BE 0.455 AND 0.479 INCHES AND ARE IDENTIFIED AS TYPICAL AND ARE NOT A CRITICAL DIMENSION. REASON FOR RETURN WAS CONFIRMED. CONCLUSION: MEDTRONIC RECEIVED INFORMATION THAT PRIOR TO USE, THE CUSTOMER REPORTED THAT TWO BIO-MEDICUS 17FR CANNULAE WERE OPENED, BUT THE RED CAPS WERE VERY LOOSE. AFTER EVALUATION THIS COMPLAINT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A DESIGN-RELATED ISSUE. REVIEW OF THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORD WAS NOT PERFORMED AS THIS WAS NOT RELATED TO A MANUFACTURING ISSUE.

THERE WERE NO ADVERSE PATIENT EFFECTS AS A RESULT OF THIS INCIDENCE. MEDTRONIC WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR FUTURE OCCURRENCES AND TRENDS.
