(b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A visual inspection of the product involved in the complaint was performed on two pictures received by the customer of product code 8884717395 (triflo ii incentive deep breathing exercicer).One of them shows batch information of the reported product and the other one only shows a foreign object whose origin cannot be clearly determined with the image received; the reported failure mode is "a patient drew attention to himself that he felt something hard in his mouth when using the breathing trainer.It was a small piece of plastic.The origin cannot be clearly determined".A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate the complaint could not be confirmed and the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.If the sample becomes available at a later date a follow up report will be submitted with investigation results.

Qn# (b)(4).The sample was returned by the customer and sent to the manufacturing site for investigation.The manufacturing site reports: a visual inspection of the product involved in the complaint was performed on a received sample for evaluation of product code 8884717395 (triflo ii incentive deep breathing exerc).While performing the visual inspection test it was observed that one piece (residues of damage issues) of the finish good 8884717395 was received in a small plastic pouch that is not part of the manufacturing process.Additional since of use was observed since the corrugated tubing and mouthpiece were received assembled into the finish good, and a damage (broken issue) was observed on the right top corner of the device; the received plastic residue is part of the device since it fits well on the damage section.It is not possible to assure that this damage was generated during the manufacturing process therefore customer complaint cannot be confirmed as a manufacturing issue.
