Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
A visual inspection and functional analysis were performed on the returned device.The reported leak was confirmed.Production record and corrective and preventative actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a query of the complaint handling database for the reported lot revealed there is no indication of a lot specific issue.Based on the reported information and the observations from the returned analysis, a definitive cause for the reported difficulties could not be determined.In this case, it is possible inadvertent interaction with other devices may have contributed to the observed tear and subsequent leak; however, this cannot be confirmed.There was no damage noted to the device during the inspection prior to use which suggests a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling did not contribute to the reported difficulties.
