Manufacturer Narrative

This follow up mdr is created to document the conclusion of the investigation, the additional event information, and the corrected implant date.A titan touch pump and two cylinders were received for evaluation.Examination and testing of the returned components revealed surface abrasion on all tubes and all strain relief of the pump.No functional abnormalities are noted with the pump.Two separations are noted in the bladder of cylinder #2.Testing revealed these to be sites of leakage.The separations appear to have a central groove, indicating contact with sharp instrumentation such as a needle.The information received indicated a malfunction - possible hole in cylinder.The information did not indicate when the observed instrument separation occurred.Because the expected use of this device combined with the observed separation would have resulted in an earlier detected fluid loss, quality cannot determine the root cause of this event.Quality reviewed the manufacturing records for this device and confirmed that there were no discrepancies that would have contributed to this complaint and verified that the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.A review of the complaint history database revealed no additional complaints reported for lot 5533058.Review of nonconforming reports revealed no nonconformance's with lot 5533058 that would have contributed to the reported event.No capas for issues of this type are associated with lot 5533058.Management routinely reviews events such as this and monitors complaint levels.Additionally, events of this type are captured in the product risk documentation.Based on this information no further corrective action is required at this time.
