Without the benefit of examination and testing, coloplast is precluded from commenting on the condition of the device or the cause of the occurrence.Should additional facts prompt us to alter or supplement any information of conclusions contained in the original mdr or in any prior supplemental reports, a follow-up report will be submitted.

This follow-up mdr is created to document the evaluation of the returned device, and the additional lot number and patient information received.A titan touch pump, two cylinders, and a pieced of detached inlet connector tubing were received for evaluation.Examination and testing of the returned components revealed a separation in the detached inlet tubing near the connector.Testing revealed this to be a site of leakage.The separation appears to be smooth and straight, indicating contact with sharp instrumentation.Surface abrasion is noted on all tubes and all strain relief of the pump.No functional abnormalities are noted with the pump, cylinder #1, or cylinder #2.Based on quality's examination, quality concluded that the observed separation in the detached inlet tubing would have allowed the reported "tubing fracture".However, because the limited information provided does not indicate any factors that may have contributed to the reported event, quality cannot confirm when the observed separation occurred.Quality reviewed the manufacturing records for this device and confirmed that there were no discrepancies that would have contributed to this complaint and verified that the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.Management routinely reviews events such as this and monitors complaint levels.Additionally, events of this type are captured in the product risk documentation.Based on this information no further corrective action is required at this time.
