Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The wrap was not available to be returned to belmont for evaluation.Review of the video clip provided by the user facility indicated leaking from the bottom of the wrap, however without the ability to investigate the wrap a definitive root cause of the reported leak cannot be established.The operator's manual provides the following warning: "do not lift or move the patient by means of the wrap.This may cause tearing and water leakage from the wrap." the following precaution is also provided: "if moisture or leaks are discovered in the connecting hose and/or wrap, turn off the criticool device, disconnect the power cable from its power source, and correct the problem before proceeding." without additional information, it is difficult to determine what occurred in this case.Samples of 2 thermowraps from production were tested on the allon system and no leaks were observed on either of the wraps.The manufacturing and leak testing history records for this thermowrap lot number were also reviewed and indicated that the lot was released without any deviations or anomalies.All thermowraps are 100% leak tested by the manufacturer prior to release for shipment.No patient injury was reported.A review of complaint records over the past two years indicate no previous reports of this type of failure.This is considered to be an isolated incident.We will continue to monitor this type of incident closely and take further corrective and preventive actions if required.
