Titan pump, cylinders 1 and 2, and reservoir were received for evaluation.Abrasion was noted on the longer exhaust tubing of the pump.A separation, surrounded by abrasion, was noted on the longer exhaust tubing of the pump.This is a site of leakage.No functional abnormalities were noted with cylinder 1 or cylinder 2.A group of striations, indicating contact with unshod instrumentation, was noted on the inlet tube of the reservoir.This is a site of leakage.Based on examination of the returned product, it was concluded that while in-vivo both the exhaust tubes and inlet tube of the pump had overlapped and abraded against one another.This positioning, in combination with device usage over time, could contribute to sufficient stress to separate the longer exhaust tubing of the pump.A separation of this type could then allow the loss of fluid, making the device inoperable.Because these components were released according to manufacturing and quality control procedures, it was concluded that the observed instrument separation in the strain relief of the reservoir occurred after the device packaging was opened.In addition, because the expected use of this device combined with the observed separation would have resulted in an earlier detected fluid loss, it was concluded that the separation most likely occurred during or after explant.This separation is not associated with the cause for failure.A review of the device history record confirmed the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.A review of the complaint history database, nonconformances and capas revealed no trends for this lot.
