Manufacturer Narrative
|
Scar was completed however the actual device was not returned for evaluation; therefore, the defect could not be confirmed, and the root cause remains undetermined.The supplier's device history record of a seperate lot #1038301 was reviewed of all line clearances, material verifications and qc inspections and for sub-assembly manufacturing by the supplier's trained and certified staff.There was no scrap related to the drainage lumen and there were no non-conforming reports generated.On 10/28/2020, there were (b)(4) finished devices released to specification.However, two complaints were found for plugged drainage lumen in this lot.For previous year ((b)(6) 2020- (b)(6) 2021) three complaints for plugged drainage lumen were reported.Supplier corrective action: training with operators related to detection of splash in the drainage lumen was completed on (b)(6) 2021.Deroyal's engineering department performed testing on fourteen samples of the finished good #81-080416.Four samples were from the customer's remaining unused catheters (lot #54121772), and ten from deroyal's distribution center (lot #54821841).All samples passed for static load test of inflated balloon response to traction.Thirteen out of fourteen passed for impact load test and leak test.One catheter failed by filling 10cc more than specified amount most likely due to an error while handling the catheter prior to testing.Four of samples lot #54121772 catheter and five of samples lot #548217841 passed flow rate test above the minimum requirement.Based on the testing performed, the products were not found to be defective.Deroyal has sold (b)(4) cases in the last two years with one similar complaint of plugged lumen.The investigation is complete at this time.No further information is available at this time.We will provide follow up report if additional information becomes available.
