(b)(4).Corrected sections: internal complaint number: (b)(4).Autonumber: (b)(4).The device was returned to the factory for evaluation.Signs of clinical use with no evidence of blood were observed.A visual inspection was conducted.No non conformities were observed.A mechanical evaluation was conducted.Following the instructions in ifu ((b)(4), instruction for use), the braided (0.64cm) tube was connected to the regulated source of c02 set with not more than 50 psi.The flow control for the saline was adjusted between 5 l/min (0.08 l/s).Care was taken that it doesn't exceed 8 l/min.The pinch clamp on iv tubing was closed and the iv spike was connected to a new bag of sterile saline with pressure cuff around it.After opening the pinch clamp the sterile saline and c02 gas started to flow simultaneously through the iv tubing.We were able to adjust the sterile saline flow to 1-5 (ml/min) and the flow of c02 gas with the help of the rollers.The sound of the c02 gas was heard at the atraumatic tip while coming out of the tube.No improper flow/infusion for the co2 gas was observed.Based on the results of the evaluation, the reported failure mode "improper flow/infusion" was not confirmed.
