Block d4, h4: the complainant was unable to provide the suspect device lot number; therefore, the lot expiration and device manufacture dates are unknown.Block h6 (device codes): imdrf device code a0501captures the reportable event of internal bolster detached.Block h10: an endovive securi-t replacement bolster was analyzed.Visual analysis of the device revealed that the feeding tube has the internal bolster detached.There are traces of adhesion in the distal end of the feeding tube and the device contains remnants of use.Therefore, the reported complaint is confirmed.Based on the condition of the returned device, engineers determined that the problem observed could be due to excessive stress, perhaps manipulation or the patient's anatomical conditions may have contributed to the separation.Boston scientific has determined the most probable cause of this complaint is adverse event related to procedure.It is most likely that the adverse event occurred during the procedure and the device had no influence on event which led to the reported event.
