Qn# (b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no complaint sample was returned for analysis.A representative sample was retrieved from production lot for simulation purpose.Visual inspection was conducted on the production representative sample and no obvious defect was observed.As part of functional inspection, the cuff pressure of the production representative sample was then inflated to 25mbar by using calibrated endotesta and no abnormality was observed on the sample.Water leak test was then conducted on the sample.No air bubbles were observed flowing out from both cuffs.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate, the probable root cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
