Manufacturer Narrative
|
One pressure monitoring set with vamp jr was received by our product evaluation laboratory for a full examination.The report of tubing issue was confirmed.However, instead of being separated, the pressure tubing was found completely broken from the distal bond joint with vamp jr.Reservoir.Cross surfaces of broken tubing appeared rough and uneven.No other visible damage was observed from returned kit.Tubing breakage is a unique issue that has been investigated and the root cause is a combination of excess solvent and stress on a portion of the tubing in the package.If tubing breakage occurs during use, it would most likely be identified by a small amount of fluid or blood loss.With this device there was no blood loss.The system can be exchanged with a minimal delay in treatment or monitoring.As such, this event is no longer considered reportable and a corrected supplemental report is being submitted.Complaint histories for all reported events are reviewed against trending control limits on a monthly basis, and any excursions above the control limits are assessed and documented as part of this monthly review.
