Unique device identification (udi): (b)(4).The hakim peritomeal catheter was returned for evaluation: failure analysis - the catheter was visually inspected and no defect was noted.The valve was leak tested and no leaks noted.The catheter was irrigated and no occlusion was noted.No root cause could be determined as the technician could not confirm any problem with the catheter at the time of investigation.The possible root cause for "abdominal wall edema re-accumulated" reported by the customer could be due to "cerebrospinal fluid (csf) not drained in appropriate cavity" and related to "user cuts the catheter too short" (surgical technique and/or user group experience).
