Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the user had often experienced the issue with the cone on the intermittent catheter, which was found to be cracked or already cracked when they open the package.They inject the drugs into the bladder and therefore used the cone in the morning and evening.They also feel that the size (ch) was varied within the same box.It has been on different batches, but also within the same batch, it seems a bit random.Sometimes the intermittent catheters were smaller than ch 08, and then it bends when the user tried to insert it, as it was too weak.Also, sometimes it was a little thicker.
