Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported event was inconclusive because this investigation did not result in any additional findings and no sample was available for evaluation.The reported event is addressed within the labeling as it states: visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use.If package is opened or if any imperfection or surface deterioration is observed, do not use.Warning: on catheter, do not use ointments or lubricants having a petrolatum base.They will damage the catheter and may cause balloon to burst.Proper techniques for urinary catheter maintenance: secure the foley catheter, use the statlock foley stabilization device if provided.Maintain a closed drainage system by utilizing pre-connected, sealed catheter-tubing junctions.Maintain unobstructed urine flow and keep the catheter and collection tube free from kinking.Keep the collection bag below the level of the bladder or hips at all times.Empty the collection bag regularly (e.G., prior to transport) using a separate, clean collection container for each patient.Routine hygiene (e.G., cleansing of the meatal surface during daily bathing or showering) is appropriate.Leave foley catheter in place only as long as needed.Attach the water filled syringe to the inflation port.Note: it is not necessary to pre-test the foley catheter balloon.Remove foley catheter from wrap and lubricate catheter.Prepare patient with 3 foam swab sticks saturated in povidone iodine.Use the nondominant hand for the genitalia and the dominant hand for the swabs.Inflate catheter balloon using entire 10cc of sterile water provided in the prefilled syringe.Note: use of less than 10cc can result in asymmetrically inflated balloon.Once inflated, gently pull catheter until the inflated balloon is snug against the bladder neck.A review of the device history record did not show any problems or conditions that would have contributed to the reported issue.No additional actions can be taken at this time.Correction: d.Udi format updated with available product information per gudid.H11: sections a through f - the information provided by bd represents all the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant/reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
