A1: patient identifier: requested, not provided.A2: age or date of birth: requested, not provided.A3a: sex: requested, not provided.A3b: gender: n/a.A4: weight: requested, not provided.A5: ethnicity: requested, not provided.A6: race: requested, not provided.D6a: implanted date: device was not implanted.D6b: explanted date: device was not explanted.E3: occupation: materials manager.The actual device is not available for return; therefore, an evaluation of the actual device was unable to be conducted.The complaint cannot be confirmed for valve leakage because the complaint sample was not returned for assessment.The exact root cause could not be determined.Historically, valve leakages have been caused by off-center insertion of the dilator.Review of device history record (dhr) contributed to this complaint condition.Currently no action is recommended since this risk evaluation is within the predetermined limits in the design failure mode and effects analysis (dfmea).
