The reported event could not be confirmed as no sample was returned for evaluation.A potential failure mode could be ¿leakage¿ with a potential root cause of "poor interface between the catheter shaft and the drainage funnel/handle".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: "caution: this product contains natural rubber latex which may cause allergic reactions.With funnel end 16¿ (40.6cm) length, two eyes, x-ray opaque rubber warning: do not use ointments or lubricants having a petrolatum base.They will damage latex.This is a single use device.Do not resterilize any portion of this device.Reuse and/or repackaging may create a risk of patient or user infection, compromise the structural integrity and/or essential material and design characteristics of the device, which may lead to device failure, and/or lead to injury, illness or death of the patient.Visually inspect the product for any imperfections or surface deterioration prior to use.Storage: store catheters at room temperature away from direct exposure to light, preferably in the original box.For urological use only.".
