Received 1 used silicone catheter.Per the visual evaluation, no damages along the catheter were found.During the functional evaluation, the balloon was inflated with 10cc of air using a syringe and then deflated.After the balloon was inflated with 10 cc of a mix of tap water and blue methylene using a syringe, the water immediately came out due to a balloon pinhole.The sample was observed under 10 x magnification and no embedded particles were found on the balloon area.The dimensional evaluation results were as follows: the balloon active length measured 0.7490¿ on one side and 0.7625¿ on the other side (specification = 0.6 - 0.9 in.).The balloon active length was found to be within specifications.The reported issue was confirmed as cause unknown.The device history record was reviewed and found nothing that could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The instructions for use state the following: "recommended inflation capacities: 3cc balloon: use 5ml sterile water, 5cc balloon: use 10ml sterile water, 30cc balloon: use 35ml sterile water, do not exceed recommended capacities.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." (b)(4).The information provided by bard 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 bard.
