Udi field (d4) concomitant product udi for reservoir is (b)(4).There was no device available for analysis; therefore, no physical or visual analysis of the product could be performed.Based on the information available, it cannot be confirmed what the cause of the deflation issue, inflation issue, pump difficulty to inflate, or fluid leak was.Additionally, the reported allegations of discomfort and migration are known risks associated with implant of this device as indicated in the instructions for use (ifu).Based on the device history record (dhr), the device was confirmed to meet specifications prior to shipment, therefore concluding manufacturing was not related to the reported event.Without a returned product available for analysis and based on this investigation, a clear probable cause for the event cannot be established; therefore, the conclusion code of cause not established has been chosen.
