Manufacturer Narrative
|
Serial number from: unknown to: (b)(6).Device evaluation: the product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded with no visible blood on the exterior of the catheter.A catheter tubing/inner lumen kink was observed at approximately 1cm from the y-fitting.Additionally, a flat catheter tubing section was also observed at approximately 1.8cm from the membrane rear seal.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter tubing, y-fitting and extracorporeal tubing was performed and no leaks were detected.The iab was placed on the cs300 pump for two hours, which represents one complete autofill cycle.The iab pumped normally and no alarm sounded.The reported event cannot be confirmed by the evaluation.However, kinks on the catheter tubing could cause alarms and/or difficulty inflating the iab.We were unable to duplicate the reported event.A device and lot history record review was completed for the reported product.No nonconformances were found that are considered to be related to the event.The failure mode is addressed in the risk file and is operating within its risk profile.The ifu addresses the reported failure.There were no ncmrs identified which could cause or contribute to the reported failure.The investigation does not indicate that the device was inadvertently released as non-conforming or an adulterated product or was a counterfeit.The complaint history review did not identify an adverse trend (increase in number of complaints over past three (3) months).Based on the rational provided above, no escalation to the capa process is required.Reference complaint #(b)(4).
