Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: d9, g3, h2, h3 and h6.H3 evaluation summary: medtronic conducted an investigation based upon all information received.The device was available for evaluation.Visual inspection noted that the cuff presents a small cut.An inflation or deflation test was performed, air was applied using a syringe to the cuff and it was observed the cuff deflated after few seconds.It was reported that the tracheostomy tube's cuff had problem with inflating during the inflation test prior to the placement of the cannula.The reported issue was confirmed.The product analysis noted evidence that the device was not used as intended.The manufacturing records for each device are thoroughly reviewed prior to release to ensure that it meets all medtronic quality specifications.A secondary review of the device history records found no potentially contributing factors.The instructions included with this device provide the following guidance: do not use larger than a 1.0 cc/ml syringe when adding air into the cuff and monitor the cuff pressures frequently.Each tube¿s cuff, pilot balloon and valve should be tested by inflation prior to tube insertion.If dysfunction is detected in any part of the inflation system, the tube should not be used.The taperguard cuff is a taper-shaped low-pressure cuff with a lower volume than a cylindrical high volume, low pressure cuff.The volume of air required to properly inflate the taperguard cuff will be significantly less.Do not overinflate the cuff.Ordinarily, cuff pressure should not exceed 25 cm of h2o.Closely monitor cuff pressure under a physician¿s guidance.Overinflation may lead to permanent tracheal damage, rupture of the cuff with subsequent deflation, or cuff distortion that may cause airway blockage.To ease insertion and to guard against cuff perforation from sharp edges of cartilage, the cuff should be pulled back.Inflate the cuff and gently move the cuff away from the distal tip of the cannula towards the neck plate as the residual air is removed by deflation.Do dot use sharp instruments such as forceps or hemostats that would damage the cuff when manipulating it.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.
