Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Titan pump and cylinders 1 and 2 were received for evaluation.No functional abnormalities were noted with the pump.A separation was noted on the exhaust tubing of cylinder 2 at the strain relief junction.This was a site of leakage.The surfaces appear to be rough and irregular, indicating stress was exerted.Separations were noted on the bladder of cylinder 1 and cylinder 2.These were sites of leakage.The separations had surfaces with a darkened or melted appearance, indicating contact with a cauterizing tool.Based on examination of the returned product, it was concluded that the rough and irregular surfaces associated with the separation indicates that sufficient stress was exerted on the exhaust tube of cylinder 2 near the strain relief to separate the site while in-vivo.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 separations in the bladder of cylinder 1 and 2 occurred after the device packaging was opened.In addition, because the expected use of this device combined with the observed separations would have resulted in an earlier detected fluid loss, it was concluded that these separations most likely occurred during or after explant.These separations are 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, non-conformances and capas revealed no trends for this lot.
