Manufacturer Narrative

Qn# (b)(4).The customer returned one 7140 adult breathing circuit set containing the circuit and bag.Visual inspection of the bag revealed a cut near the connector.The cut was smooth consistent with contact with sharps such as a scalpel or scissors.The bag was connected to an air supply to functionally test.The bag was able to inflate but air was found to leak out of the cut in the bag.The generic anesthesia breathing circuit ifu instructs the user, "before use, test the circuit according to instructions provided by the manufacturer of the gas monitoring equipment.If supplied, attach the breathing bag to the bag connection of the appropriate equipment interface." the complaint of a circuit bag not inflating was confirmed based on an investigation of the returned sample.Visual inspection of the bag revealed a cut near the connector.The cut was smooth consistent with contact with sharps such as a scalpel or scissors.When the bag was functionally tested, air was found to leak out of the cut in the bag.Since this product code is inspected 100% before leaving the manufacturing facility, it is unlikely that the failure was present at the time of release.A device history record review did not reveal any manufacturing related issues.Based on the sample returned it was determined that unintentional user error likely caused or contributed to this event.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend on complaints of this nature.
