8.1 summary
This report only applies to Disposable Wound Drainage System ,including all stages of the
life-cycle of this device. Disposable Wound Drainage System is made of polyvinyl chloride. The
manufacturing processincludes molding, extrude pipe, assembling and so on.
8.2 function principles
Disposable Wound Drainage System is for clinical negative pressure drainage, it is connected
to a drainage catheter inserted into the body to collect drainage fluid. Disposable Wound Drainage
System is only for single use, in order to avoid iatrogenic cross infection between the users or the
patients.
8.4 Environment for use
This product should be operated by the professionals, and the intended users should be trained
by the technicians. This product is steriled by ethylene oxide gas and only for single use. Please
discard after using.
8.5 Some related data about risk evaluation
This section describes the relevant data about risk estimation. According to
ENISO14971Annex C Questions that can be used to identify medical device characteristics that
could impact on safety, We answer all the questions and assure all the questions are considered. See
Annex 1.
9 The implement of risk analysis
9.1 methods
9.1.1 Now it has been widely used in clinic all over the country. Its market is already in
developed.Therefore, we assess and analyse the product hazard from a theoretical undesirable
consequences, and analyse the possible reasons which lead to hazard.
Risk analysis will be carried out in the planning stage, and it will put forward development
requirements about reduce the risk of measures. Through the verification in the particular stage of
development process, whether or not produce new hazard,damage degree of existing estimation and

damage probability estimation is still valid, and make the necessary changes. Hazardswhich appear
in the final stage shall be reviewed immediately and take corresponding measures.
9.1.2 Supposed fault
In some specific time range, only an independent fault can be assumed, and the single fault
should not cause harm. Even if it is harmless and is not recognized, the fault should not cause harm.
Generally,three separate faults within service life about the medical products are not considered.But
assumption about the user fault is estimated in the form of the foreseeable negligence in the range
ofthe intended users orthe trained operators.

9.1.4 Judgement about probable hazard
Note about hazard:The occurrence of damage is always a result of a causal relationship.It
mostly caused by technology or psychological subtle reasons, and as a result, human body is
harmed. In this risk analysis, hazard is “the relationship between initial the causality and damage to
human body ”.
Information source:
The field data obtained from similar products which have been used, or service reports,
customer complaints etc;
The product performance and process research;
Risk analysis report about similar products;
The relevant medical literature and information.
The relevant potential hazards:
Product performance;
The device is not sterile;
Heat reaction;
The number of residual ethylene oxide changes.
ENISO14971:2012 Annex C Questions that can be used to identify medical device
characteristicsthat could impact on safety, can be used to check the completeness of the hazard list.
See Annex 1.

Heat reaction.
The number in the list is quoted in S in the risk management report.The extent of the harmdoes
not depend on its manufaturing reasons, but there are exceptions, so every hazard / reason should
respectively indicate the extent of harm. If the extent of the harmis different under different
conditions, the highest degree should be taken.
9.5 Judgement the potential causes of each hazard
According to 8.2, the potential causes of each hazard should be judged. All the staff of the
group can search potential reasons by means of their professional knowledge, and other reasons can
be from the failure mode and effect analysis about the key factors.
9.6 Estimate the probability of each reason
According to the potential causes of hazards, the likelihood of their occurrence should be
estimated. In addition, the relevant information source:
The use of similar products (sales statistics data);
Technical specifications which have been approved;
Service life investigation;
Quantitative analysis as follows:

Because the amount of data which the occurrence probability estimation can be based on is
less,in many cases the classification has some uncertain factors.With the help of the feedback data,
periodically verified hypothesis can be made, if necessary, can be modified.
The number in the list is quoted in W in the risk management report.
9.7 Risk estimation
There are two risk parameters in each hazard/reason, the extent of the harm and occurrence
probability. Risk is assured according to those two parameters. In line with EN ISO14971, there are

4.3 If there is risk in the process of use, immediate analysis should be carried out, and perfect risk
management report.
Annex 7 Conclusion
As displayed the risk analysis, all risks are under control and kept in lower part of R range or acceptable
range, effectiveness and safety of the medical device has been adequately illustrated, summing up all
the above, we think the risks are all under control and be acceptable. When new documents and data
are used, the new round of risk analysis shall be carried out, for example, material change, new products
types added, process change, etc. all this change will be implemented after the risk is analyzed
accordingly.
