Manufacturer Narrative

The reported event was confirmed as cause unknown.1 sample was confirmed to exhibit the reported failure.The device had not met specifications.A potential root cause for this failure could be catheter is stretched during insertion.A review of the device history record did not show any problems or conditions that would have contributed to the reported issue.The investigation is concluded, and no additional action is required at this time.The device history record was reviewed and found nothing that could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: "caution: federal (u.S.A.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.Sterile unless package is opened or damaged.Warning: do not use ointments or lubricants having a petrolatum base.They will damage silicone and may cause balloon to burst.Caution: do not aspirate urine through the drainage funnel wall.Storage: store catheters at room temperature away from direct exposure to light, preferably in the original box.Single use only.Do not reuse.Do not resterilize.For urological use only.Valve type: use luer slip syringe.Do not use needle.Recommended inflation capacities 8 fr.And 10 fr.(3cc balloon): use 3.5cc sterile water 12 fr.(5cc balloon): use 5.5cc sterile water 14 fr.And larger (5cc balloon): use 10cc sterile water do not exceed recommended capacities.Warning: after use, this product may be a potential biohazard.Handle and dispose of in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations.Caution: aggressive traction, particularly in the presence of suturing, is not recommended for 100% silicone balloon foley catheters.To deflate catheter balloon: gently insert a syringe in the catheter valve.Never use more force than is required to make the syringe ¿stick¿ in the valve.If you notice slow or no deflation, re-seat the syringe gently.Allow the balloon to deflate slowly on its own.Do not aspirate or manually accelerate the deflation of the balloon.If permitted by hospital protocol, the valve arm may be severed.If this fails, contact adequately trained professional for assistance, as directed by hospital protocol.Should balloon rupture occur, care should be taken to assure that all balloon fragments have been removed from the patient.Visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use.Note: compatible only with the bard criticore monitor, bard urotrack 224 monitor, and other 400-series temperature monitors.Interchangeability + 0.2oc at 37oc.Warning: this product should never be connected to the temperature monitor or connected to a cable during an mri procedure.Failure to follow this guideline may result in serious injury to the patient.It is important to closely follow these specific conditions that have been determined to permit the examination to be conducted safely.Any deviation may result in a serious injury to the patient.Caution: as with all temperature probes, in the presence of rf energy sources, local heating, temperature errors, and probe damage may occur.Do not stretch catheter.This will cause repositioning of probe.Do not use stylet.This will cause stretching of catheter." h11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.H3 other text : the actual/suspected device was inspected.
