The customer reported that the adult large was put into service on 3/13/2024 and now has a hole in the bladder, requiring it to be taken out of service.Medline received one double tube inflation cuff in used condition and, upon visual inspection, confirmed that the cuff had a tear located where the tubing connects to the bladder, causing an air leak.The complaint was confirmed; per vendor, the complaint could not be confirmed based on dhr and inspection record review.Cause was documented as cannot determine cause with received sample, although the investigation stated the issue shown was most likely caused due to excessive bending around that area; this would prevent the cuff from inflating/deflating correctly, and the division will continue to monitor the issue for trending.There were no reports of death, serious injury, medical intervention, or follow up care.It has been determined that the reported event could cause or contribute to serious injury if it were to occur again.In an abundance of caution, this is a reportable event.If additional information becomes available this report will be reopened and reevaluated.This medical device report (mdr) is being submitted as part of retrospective review activities, which include review of historical data in accordance with regulations at 21 cfr part 803.The information included in this mdr reflects the information reasonably known to the manufacturer at the time of this retrospective review and submission.
