This follow-up mdr is created to document the conclusion of the evaluation and updated device information.A titan touch, two cylinders and a reservoir were received for evaluation.Examination and testing of the returned components revealed a separation in the reservoir bladder.Testing revealed this to be a site of leakage.Microscopic examination of the surfaces revealed them to be smooth and non-striated, indicating contact with sharp instrumentation.No functional abnormalities were noted with the pump or two cylinders.Because the available information did not provide any indication as to what factors may have contributed to the device not inflating and because no functional abnormalities were observed, quality cannot determine the cause of the reported event.A review of the device history record confirmed the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.A review of the complaint history database revealed no trends for this lot.Review of nonconforming reports revealed no nonconformances for this lot.No capas are associated with this lot.Because these components were released according to manufacturing and quality control procedures, qa concluded that the observed instrument separation in the reservoir bladder occurred subsequent to the device packaging being opened.In addition, because the expected use of this device combined with the observed separation would have resulted in an earlier detected fluid loss, quality concluded that the separation most likely occurred during or subsequent to explant.This separation is not associated with the cause for failure.
