Manufacturer Narrative

A full review of the device history records was conducted.The review indicates that this lot of chest drains met all quality and performance criteria.As the device in question was not returned a root cause cannot be determined.If the drain were returned it would have been evaluated to determine the cause of the complaint and to confirm the package was damaged as stated in the complaint details.Clinical evaluation: the oasis chest drainage system is indicated for the evacuation of air and/or fluid from the chest cavity or mediastinum and to help re-establish lung expansion and restore breathing dynamics.It also facilitates postoperative collection and reinfusion of autologous blood from the patient's pleural cavity or mediastinal area.A package that is damaged would be noticed prior to admission to a sterile field.Damaged packaging may be the result of improper storage conditions or shipping occurrences.It would represent a delay in treatment for the patient.The instructions for use (ifu) 3 states the oasis drain is packaged sterile and do not use if device or package is damaged.
