Although the case is confounded by the reported blood clots, based on the overall information currently provided in this report, there is a reasonable possibility that a potential malfunction (reported as "clot obscuring the holes" and "50-75% of the holes were occluded by clot") has occurred with the jada system whereby if the suspected malfunction were to recur at a time when the patient was not under close observation, this malfunction could possibly cause or contribute to a death or serious injury.Per the jada system ifu "evaluate for lacerations, retained products of conception, or other causes of bleeding prior to using jada.", "jada is not a substitute for surgical management and fluid resuscitation of life-threatening pph/abnormal postpartum uterine bleeding "and "signs of patient deterioration or failure to improve indicate the need for reassessment and possibly more aggressive treatment and management of postpartum hemorrhage (pph)/abnormal postpartum uterine bleeding." out of an abundance of caution, this case will be reported as a malfunction mdr.
