H6.Investigation codes: updated.Investigation summary: one used decontaminated sample was received without its original packaging.Under visual inspection the sample appeared to be in good condition.During manufacturing process, the devices are 100% inflation tested, which includes inflating each device cuff and leaving for a 12-hour period.Reductions in pressure over this time are considered a failure and the device would be rejected.The inflation test was repeated on the received sample.It was confirmed that after 12 hours the cuff was still fully inflated.Based on results of testing the reported failure was not observed and the root cause was unknown.A review of the device history record (dhr) shows there were no observations or nonconformities recorded during manufacture to suggest an issue of this nature would occur with this lot of products.
