Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unchanged, unknown or unavailable.Investigation - evaluation.Reviews of the instructions for use (ifu) and quality control data were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed; however, a document based investigation evaluation was performed.There is no evidence to suggest the product was not made to specifications.A review of the device history record could not be completed due to lack of lot information from the user facility.A review of complaint history could not be completed due to lack of information from the user facility.The instructions for use (ifu) provides the following information to the user related to the reported failure mode: warnings "this device intended as a temporary means of establishing hemostasis in cases indicating conservative management of postpartum uterine bleeding." "patients in whom this device is being used should be closely monitored for signs of worsening bleeding and/or disseminated intravascular coagulation (dic).In such cases, emergency intervention per hospital protocol should be followed." "patient monitoring is an integral part of managing postpartum hemorrhage.Signs of deteriorated or non-improving condition should lead to a more aggressive treatment and management of patient uterine bleeding." instructions for use "important: prior to transvaginal or transabdominal placement of the bakri postpartum balloon, the uterus should be free of all placental fragments, and the patient should be evaluated to ensure that there are no lacerations or trauma to the genital tract and that the source of the bleeding is not arterial." cook has concluded that the cause of the event cannot be traced to the complaint device and was most likely related to inadvertent damage to the infundibulopelvic (ovarian) ligament during surgery and uterine atony.There was no malfunction of the device.Per the quality engineering risk assessment, no further action is warranted.Cook medical will continue to monitor this device via the complaints database for similar complaints.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803.This report is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement made in it is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned; that a death or serious injury occurred; or that any cook device caused or contributed to; or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
