After receiving this complaint, we searched for other complaint and we didn't find other complaint regarding the lot number 9529705.Balloon burst issue is known but according to the available information we cannot conclude on a specific root cause in this case.Quality database was checked and revealed a corrective and preventive action: capa-000152."balloon issues on folysil and silicone prostatic catheters" was opened and monthly monitoring.No corrective action will be implemented as our trend is not increasing and the threshold is not exceeded.The evaluation has showed that risks are adequately controlled and reduced as far as possible in the state of art.Based on this, we can conclude that residual risks are adequately controlled and reduced as far as possible, and the residual risks associated with the use of the product are acceptable when weighed against the benefits to the patient/user.It is concluded that the risks identified are still acceptable and considered as safe.A similar case study was performed on folysil silicone catheter, on the same defect "balloon burst" from (b)(6) 2025, 184 similar cases were found.
