Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On november 09, 2023, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.On november 12, 2023, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: during visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the spec siltex contour 350cc returned device.In addition, the tubing was found rupture.Leak testing was performed, according with mentor procedure, and it revealed a tear on the posterior view within an area of siltex cracking, measuring approximately 0.8 cm.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the deflation is consistent with normal wear.Siltex cracking is defined as a material separation occurring in the siltex layer and can eventually progress through the shell of siltex devices.Siltex cracking is ultimately a result of high stresses.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.No corrective and preventive action (capa) is required now.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
