Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unchanged, unknown, or unavailable.Investigation ¿ evaluation.It was reported that the balloon of an arndt endobronchial blocker set did not inflate during test inflation with a syringe.Other devices were used to complete the one-lung ventilation procedure.There were no adverse effects to the patient due to this occurrence.Reviews of documentation including the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), manufacturing instructions, drawing, and quality control procedures, as well as a visual inspection of the returned device, were conducted during the investigation.Cook received one balloon catheter from the customer.Visual inspection confirmed the balloon was torn; therefore, the device cannot inflate.Additionally, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.A review of the dhr for the reported complaint device lot records two quality control discrepancies for failed leak test.There are 100% inspections in place to identify this failure before shipping and all discrepancies were scrapped.A database search for complaints on the reported lot found no additional complaints reported from the field.Cook concluded that no non-conforming product from this lot exists in house or in the field.Cook also reviewed product labeling.The product ifu, [c_t_aebs_rev6] ¿arndt endobronchial blocker set,¿ provides the following information to the user related to the reported failure mode: warnings: ¿the enclosed blocker balloon is a high-volume, low-pressure design.Excessive manipulation over a prolonged period may cause balloon rupture or deflation.¿ precautions: ¿care should be taken to ensure the balloon remains fully inflated during longer procedures.¿ instructions for use: ¿warning: the lungs should be carefully auscultated following initial endobronchial blocker placement and balloon inflation to ensure proper functioning of the endobronchial blocker.¿ the information provided upon review of dmr, dhr, ifu, and device failure analysis, does not indicate the device was manufactured out of specification.There is no evidence of nonconforming material in house or in the field.Based on the information provided, inspection of the returned device, and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that component failure unrelated to manufacturing or design deficiencies contributed to this incident.It is possible the balloon was over inflated causing the balloon to burst; however, cook cannot confirm this.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the risk assessment no further action is required.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
