Test results from the manufacturing line found a piece of damaged o-ring in an unexpected section of the catheter. Further testing indicated that pieces (>200 micron) of damaged o-ring had the potential to be flushed out of the catheter. ACIST is confirming the source of the failure mode to assure the quality and reliability of the Kodama catheter. There have been no related field reports related to this incident, nor any evidence or report of patient injury or adverse health consequence.
