The reported event was unconfirmed.Visual evaluation noted 29 unopened magic 3 intermittent catheters in original packaging.No damage noted on exterior of packaging.Dip line and hydrophilic coating were present.The samples were tested according to general inspection level ii/single sampling plan.Performed organoleptic test.Lubricious coating material remained on all catheters tested after more than 10 wipes.The device history record was reviewed and found nothing that could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The instructions for use were found adequate and state the following: "intended use the catheter is intended for urinary bladder drainage in adult males and females requiring catheterization for management of incontinence, voiding dysfunction, and surgical procedures.Efficacy of the catheter in preventing urinary tract infection during intermittent use has not been established.The device is not intended to be used as a treatment for active urinary tract infection.Please contact your physician to determine which product options are best for you, paying close attention to product warnings/ precautions and adverse reactions.Instructions for use the catheter becomes slippery when wetted with water, eliminating the need for a separate lubricant.For your added convenience, this catheter is packaged with its own sterile water.Simply release the water from its foil packet and then tip the un-opened catheter package end-to-end.The catheter acts like a magnet to attract the water and activate its slippery coating.Follow these steps for best results." h11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of 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.
