Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The actual device was not available for evaluation.It is vital to the investigation that the actual device be available for examination and testing.Incoming inspection records for the helmet were reviewed and results were within the established specifications.Inspection records for the raw material used to mold the plug were reviewed and certificate of analysis (coa) indicates that all test results are within specification limits, including durometer.The non-conformance report data since july 2016 to present was reviewed and no issues that could be related to the condition reported were found.Plugs were molded in-house within approved parameters and in accordance to specifications.The device history record (dhr) for the finished good was reviewed and no incident was documented that could have caused this type of non-conformance.Suction and leak tests results were found in compliance.This is the first incident reported for this lot number due to this type of complaint.A root cause could not be determined.Since no evidence of a manufacturing issue was found, no actions will be taken.The instructions for use (ifu) provide detailed instructions regarding the recommended usage for the reservoir.This includes the compression of the reservoir body completely and securely inserting the drainage plug to maintain vacuum and activate wound drainage.The reservoir must not be allowed to completely fill.If the reservoir is not emptied when it is full, the positive pressure accumulated inside it, could cause the plug to pop off.We will continue to monitor trends and utilize this information as part of our continuous improvement.
