The reported event was confirmed ¿ cause unknown.Sample was evaluated and observed syringe was empty.A potential root cause for this failure mode could be due to generated at supplier site or user related, (example: defective / torn / broken components).A dhr review is not required as the lot number is unknown.The instructions for use were found adequate and states the following: [warnings] 1.Method for use (1) do not inflate the balloon in the urethra.[the urethra may be injured.] (2) do not pull the catheter hard.[the bladder/urethra may be injured.] 2.Applicable patients ·patients with delirium who might pull out catheter [when patient tugs at catheter unconsciously, the bladder and urethra may be damaged.] [contraindications] 1.Method for use: (1) do not reuse.(2) do not resterilize.(3) this device contains 10% povidone-iodine.For patients with past history of allergic hypersensitivity to povidone-iodine or iodine, consider using alternative disinfectants.(4) be careful that the catheter is not exposed to ointments, contrast medium or oil-based lubricants (including vegetable oils such as olive oil, mineral oils such as white petrolatum and animal oils).[they may damage the device and may burst balloon.] (5) do not hold the device with forceps, etc.Avoid contact with any blades or sharp-edged instruments.[catheter damage may cause balloon rupture and accidental balloon removal or failure to deflate or remove the balloon.] 2.Applicable patients patients with known allergy to silver coated catheter [shape, configuration and principles] bard® silver lubri-sil® foley tray consists of a balloon catheter, urine-collecting bag for closed drainage system, syringe prefilled with sterile water, water-soluble lubricant, antiseptic solution, tweezers, waterproof sheet, gauze pads, cotton balls, vinyl gloves and statlock foley.Some catheter types of the device may have a temperature sensor for measuring patient¿s core body temperature and there are several types of closed drainage bags.The bag and statlock foley included in the tray will depend on the product.The surfaces of the catheter are coated with a minute amount of metallic silver and further coated with polyurethane, having antiproliferative effects on microorganisms on the catheter. balloon catheter: silicone; silver coating this product is made with bacti-guard®* silver alloy coating. available in sizes 12 to 22 every 2fr.[precautions] 1.Precautions for use (exercise caution when using the device in the following patients) 1) exercise caution when using the device in patients with high urinary calcium levels as encrustation on the balloon surface, catheter occlusion or damage may occur.2.Important precautions 1) when catheter is inadvertently removed, inspect the balloon and shaft of catheter for rupture, defect, etc.Before inserting a new catheter.2) when any part of the balloon and/or the catheter is missing, consider removing them using a cystoscope.3) when it is difficult to remove catheter by deflating the balloon, take appropriate measures according to the section ¿troubleshooting¿. 1) based on non-clinical studies, mri safety for the device is confirmed under the following conditions: - static magnetic field of 3-tesla or less with regard to magnetic field interactions.- spatial gradient magnetic field of 720-gauss/cm or less with regard to magnetic field interactions.- maximum mr system reported whole-body-averaged specific absorption rate (sar) of 3.5-w/kg at 1.5- or 3-w/kg at 3-tesla for 15 minutes of scanning.2) the position of the wire of the foley catheter with temperature sensor has an effect on the amount of heating that may develop during an mri procedure.Accordingly, the foley catheter with temperature sensor must be positioned in a straight configuration down the center of the patient table (i.E., down the center of the mr system without any loop) to prevent possible excessive heating associated with an mri procedure.3) importantly, the mri procedure should be performed using an mr system operating at a static magnetic field strength of 1.5-tesla or 3-tesla only.The safe use of an mr system operating at lower or higher field strength for a patient with a foley catheter with temperature sensor has not been determined.4) if the foley catheter with temperature sensor has a removable catheter connector cable, it should be disconnected prior to the mri procedure.5) remove all electrically conductive material from the bore of the mr system that is not required for the procedure (i.E., unused surface coils, cables, etc.).6) keep electrically conductive material that must remain in the bore of the mr system from directly contacting the patient by placing thermal and/or electrical insulation including air between the conductive material and the patient.3.Malfunction and adverse events 1) malfunction - catheter kinking, damage, rupture - difficulty or failure to remove the device - occlusion of catheter inner lumens - encrustation - accidental removal of the device due to leakage of sterile water or balloon rupture - device damage due to inappropriate use - failure to measure temperature - improper temperature indication 2) adverse events - urinary-tract infection - hemorrhage, hematuria - allergy reaction to the device - calculus formation - edema - pain - discomfort - injury of bladder or urethral - urethritis, urinary incontinence - retained balloon fragments.[storage method and expiration date] 1.Storage store in a dry, cool place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.2.Expiration date indicated on the direct package and the outer box.H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all 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.H3 other text : the actual/suspected device was inspected.
