    (B)(4). THE DEVICE WAS RETURNED AND EVALUATED BY THE PRODUCT ANALYSIS LAB (PAL). THE PAL EVALUATED THE DEVICE AND NO FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION WAS IDENTIFIED THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCREASED INTRA-PERITONEAL VOLUME (IIPV) FOUND IN THE DEVICE LOGS. THE CAUSE OF THE INCREASED INTRA-PERITONEAL VOLUME (IIPV) WAS DETERMINED TO BE: INSUFFICIENT DRAIN, FALSE EMPTY DETECT AND USE ERROR, INITIAL DRAIN ALARM SETTING INAPPROPRIATELY PROGRAMMED TOO LOW. DEVICE MET SPECIFICATIONS RELATIVE TO IIPV IN THE LOGS. THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS FOUND DURING AN INTERNAL INSPECTION OF THE DEVICE THAT WOULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE IIPV. A REVIEW OF THE DEVICE SERVICE HISTORY FOR THIS PARTICULAR HOMECHOICE REVEALED THE PREVIOUS SWAP WAS UNRELATED. A LABELING REVIEW FOUND THE PATIENT AT HOME GUIDE TO BE ADEQUATE FOR THE USE/USER ERROR IDENTIFIED IN THIS INCIDENT. BAXTER HAS CONDUCTED A TREND REVIEW AND FOUND THAT SIMILAR REPORTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED FOR THE REPORTED PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE IS BEING INVESTIGATED THROUGH CAPA.
