Qn#(b)(4).Complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.Part number reported is not being manufactured currently, however, another part number from the same family was use for the "verification of failure mode reported in the current manufacturing process" and was conducted as follows: 80 samples were taken from the current production, the cuff from the samples were inflated and left for four hours, after this time samples were checked to verify if any leak was present however all samples were still fully inflated, defect reported "leak - device leak - cuff" was not observed in the current manufacturing process.A device history record review was performed, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate, the complaint could not be confirmed, and the probable cause could not be determined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.If the sample becomes available at a later date a follow up report will be submitted with investigation results.
