Manufacturer Narrative
|
The reported event was unconfirmed.The visual evaluation noted 6 unopened samples in original packaging.No damage was noted on exterior of the packaging.Dip line and hydrophilic coating were present.A organoleptic test was performed and the lubricious coating material remained on 4 catheters after more than 10 wipes and 2 catheters for 5 wipes.All catheters passed the organoleptic test.The device history record was reviewed and found nothing that could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: "the catheter is intended for urinary bladder drainage in adult males and females requiring catheterization for management of incontinence, voiding dysfunction, and surgical procedures.Efficacy of the catheter in preventing urinary tract infection during intermittent use has not been established.The device is not intended to be used as a treatment for active urinary tract infection.Please contact your physician to determine which product options are best for you, paying close attention to product warnings/ precautions and adverse reactions.Instructions for use the catheter becomes slippery when wetted with water, eliminating the need for a separate lubricant.For your added convenience, this catheter is packaged with its own sterile water.Simply release the water from its foil packet and then tip the un-opened catheter package end-to-end.The catheter acts like a magnet to attract the water and activate its slippery coating.Follow these steps for best results.".
