This report is being sent as follow-up no.1 to update section d9, section h3, and to provide the completed investigation results.The actual device has been returned for evaluation.One tr band and inflator were returned to terumo medical corporation for evaluation.The sample was subject to visual analysis.There are no damage or deformities on the band or inflator.There is 1ml of air left in the band.The sample was subject to leak testing.Approximately 18ml of air was injected into the band and submerged in a water bath for 30 seconds.Air bubbles were observed from the check valve.The sample failed leak testing.The check valve was deconstructed to check for damage or foreign matter.Upon deconstruction, foreign matter was found in the check valve.The complaint can be confirmed for air leakage issues.The cause is foreign matter in the check valve.The operations quality engineer was notified about this issue and a nonconformance (nc) report was initiated.The nonconformance report will contain root cause analysis and corrective actions.Review of device history record (dhr) showed there were no issues noted during manufacture of the product that could have contributed to this complaint condition.Currently no action is recommended since this risk evaluation is within the predetermined limits in the hazard based risk table (hbrt).
