The most frequently reported specific device problem is “Fluid/Blood Leak” (1,716 reports).

Reports come from manufacturers, hospitals and patients and are not verified by the FDA. A report does not prove the device caused the event. Widely used products collect more reports, so totals can't be used to compare products or estimate failure rates. Only reports that name a model's exact device identifier are counted.

  THE CUSTOMER REPORTED A NORMAL INSERTION BUT THE WIRE WAS UNABLE TO BE REMOVED AFTER THE TUBE WAS INSERTED INTO THE PATIENT. THE PROCEDURE WAS ABANDONED AND THE TUBE WAS REMOVED. THERE WAS NO PATIENT HARM. PER ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PROVIDED ON JANUARY 29, 2026 BY THE STORES AND EQUIPMENT NURSE WHO RAISED THE ISSUE, THEY DID NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE IFU (INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE) AT THE POINT OF CARE AS WHEN THEY RECEIVE A DELIVERY OF EQUIPMENT THEY DO NOT RECEIVE IT IN A BOX BUT INDIVIDUALLY AND THERE IS NO IFU IN THE PRODUCT PACK WHICH MADE THEM UNAWARE OF CHANGES TO INSERTION INSTRUCTIONS. THEY WERE MADE AWARE BY ANOTHER STAFF MEMBER THE FOLLOWING SHIFT. INSERTING NGTS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS OFTEN ON THEIR WARD AND THEY CANNOT REMEMBER THE LAST TIME THAT AN NGT WAS INSERTED ON THE WARD. THEY KNEW ABOUT USING WATER TO ACTIVATE THE OUTER COATING OF THE TUBE, BUT NOTHING ELSE. THE STAFF HAVE NOW BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE REQUIREMENT TO ACTIVATE THE HYDROMER PRIOR TO AND AFTER PLACEMENT.
