H2, h3, h6, h10 updated.Product investigation completed.The ams700 ipp cylinders were visually inspected and functionally tested.A fluid leak, hole in the outer tube and broken fabric threads were present near the distal end of the cylinder body of one of the cylinders.This damage was concluded to be attributed to sharp instrument damage consistent with explant and is therefore considered a secondary failure.Cylinder 2 had a leak near the distal end of the cylinder body attributed to sharp instrument damage.A leak was also identified near the proximal end of the cylinder body due to wear at the corner of a buckling fold.No connectors returned.Product analysis was unable to confirm the allegation of a tubing break on the white connector as no connectors returned; however, a leak was identified in the cylinder body which is the most probable cause of the inflation issue.The product analysis results and event report provided no objective evidence that would warrant further escalation.
