Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported event was inconclusive because no sample was available for evaluation and further investigation did not result in any additional findings.Root cause could not be identified.Although a root cause could not be definitively identified, based on the risk documentation review, a potential root cause for this type of failure could be "water lost via permeation".However, there was insufficient information to confirm this potential root cause.The device history record review could not be performed without a lot number.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: ¿caution: federal (u.S.A.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.Sterile: unless package is opened or damaged.Do not use if package is opened or damaged.Sterilized using ethylene oxide.Warning: on catheter, do not use ointments or lubricants having petrolatum base.They will damage latex and may cause the balloon to burst.Caution: do not aspirate urine through drainage funnel wall.Storage: store catheters at room temperature away from direct exposure to light, preferably in the original box.Visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use single use only.Do not reuse.Not resterilize.For urological use only.Valve type: use luer slip syringe.Do not use needle.Recommended inflation capacities 3cc balloon: use 5cc sterile water 5cc balloon: use 10cc sterile water 30cc balloon: use 35cc sterile water do not exceed recommended capacities.Warning: after use, this product may be a potential biohazard.Handle and dispose of in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations.Catheters should be replaced in accordance with the cdc guideline, "guideline for prevention of catheter-associated urinary tract infection." at the onset or first signs of a urinary tract infection, catheter encrustation, or any other catheter related adverse effect, the catheter should be replaced.To deflate catheter balloon: gently insert a luer slip syringe in the catheter valve.Never use more force than is required to make the syringe "stick" in the valve.Allow the pressure within the balloon to force the plunger back and fill the syringe with water.If you notice slow or no deflation, re-seat the syringe gently.Use only gentle aspiration to encourage deflation if needed.Vigorous aspiration may collapse the inflation lumen, preventing balloon deflation.If permitted by hospital protocol, the valve arm may be severed.If this fails, contact adequately trained professional for assistance, as directed by hospital protocol.Should balloon rupture occur, care should be taken to assure that all balloon fragments have been removed from the patient.¿ udi format updated with available product information per gudid.H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
