Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported event is inconclusive due to the condition of the sample received.Visual evaluation noted 1 used mec received with open original packaging.It is unknown how the product reacted with the patient's body and therefore unable to replicate the failure mode.Therefore, it is unknown if the product meets specifications.Although an exact root cause could not be determined a potential root cause could be materials not biocompatible.The device history record was reviewed and found nothing that could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: "intended use: the self-adhering male external catheter is used for the drainage of urine.The catheter is applied by the patient or caregiver.Description / indication: the self-adhering male external catheter is designed for the management of adult male urinary incontinence.Contraindication: do not use on irritated or compromised skin.Warning: reuse and/or repackaging may create a risk of patient or user infection, compromise the structural integrity and/or essential material and design characteristics of the device, which may lead to device failure, and/or lead to injury or illness of the patient.Precaution: do not use if allergic reaction occurs or if patient has known allergies to device components.For good hygiene, change catheter daily.Use of a single device for longer periods than 24 hours may increase the risk of complications.Follow directions to remove if experiencing swelling, numbness, discomfort, pain, discoloration, or abnormal appearance.Note: if experiencing problems with use of the device, please consult your healthcare professional for assistance.Directions to apply: 1) verify correct size prior to use.2) trim pubic hair if necessary.3) wash penis with mild soap and warm water.Dry thoroughly.Wear time may be reduced if skin is not dry or cream/oil is used.4) open package at perforation.Remove catheter from plastic insert, if present.5) place rolled end over the end of the penis, leaving a small space between the end of the penis and the cone of the catheter.6) unroll the catheter over penis.7) gently squeeze the catheter to properly seal adhesive to the skin.If possible, avoid leaving a rolled ¿collar¿ around the base of the penis.Important: wear time may be reduced if adhesive is not properly sealed to the skin.8) connect the catheter to a drainage system.Make sure to check that connections are secure before use.Directions to remove: 1) ensure drainage bag is empty.2) disconnect catheter from the drainage system.3) gently roll the catheter forward and off the penis.If necessary, apply a warm wet compress (such as a wet washcloth) around the catheter to help loosen the adhesive." h11: section a through f - the information provided by bard represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bard.H3 other text : the actual/suspected device was evaluated.
