Manufacturer Narrative

The reported event was inconclusive because no sample was available for evaluation and further investigation did not result in any additional findings.Although a root cause could not be definitively identified, based on the risk documentation review, a potential root cause for this type of failure could be "inflation / drainage lumen wall perforated".However, there was insufficient information to confirm this potential root cause.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: "visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use.Should balloon rupture occur, care should be taken to assure that all balloon fragments have been removed from the patient.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.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.Caution: do not aspirate urine through drainage funnel wall." h11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all 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.
