Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported event was inconclusive as no sample was returned for evaluation.A potential root cause could be due to manufacturing related and it could potentially be due to operator error or mechanical error (eg: incorrect machine parameter).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: "sterile: unless package is opened or damaged.Do not use if package is opened or damaged.Warning: on catheter, do not use ointments or lubricants having petrolatum base.They will damage latex and may cause the balloon to burst.Caution: do not aspirate urine through drainage funnel wall.Storage: store catheters at room temperature away from direct exposure to light, preferably in the original box.Visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use.Valve type: use luer slip syringe.Do not use needle.Recommended inflation capacities: 3cc balloon: use 5cc sterile water.5cc balloon: use 10cc sterile water.30cc balloon: use 35cc sterile water.To deflate catheter balloon: gently insert a syringe in the catheter valve.Never use more force than is required to make the syringe ¿stick¿ in the valve.Allow the pressure within the balloon to force the plunger back and fill the syringe with water.If you notice slow or no deflation, re-seat the syringe gently.Use only gentle aspiration to encourage deflation if needed.Vigorous aspiration may collapse the inflation lumen, preventing balloon deflation.If permitted by hospital protocol, the valve arm may be severed.If this fails, contact an adequately trained professional for assistance, as directed by hospital protocol.Should balloon rupture occur, care should be taken to assure that all balloon fragments have been removed from the patient." 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.H3 other text : the device was not returned.
