(b)(4).The batch card(s) for the complaint lot(s) was reviewed and all passed qa inspection test.Visual inspection on returned sample observed the balloon was still inflated and no any other abnormalities throughout the catheter.Further investigation was conducted by deflating the balloon when connecting to the syringe and it was observed the balloon was able to deflate smoothly without any difficulties.In our current standard operating procedure, the products are subjected to 100% visual inspection and any defective raw balloon will be culled out before sent to the next process.Based on the analysis carried out on the returned sample, the catheter was fully functional upon test conducted.The balloon was able to stay inflated and deflated without any abnormalities observed or difficulties faced.Since there was no product dis-functionality issue observed based on reported failure, therefore this complaint could not be confirmed.
