The patient did seek medical attention for the skin condition.The physician did not prescribe medication to treat the skin condition.The patient was able to wear the device for 4 days and the physician determined that enough data was collected and that device use could be discontinued.Based on the evidence and medical affairs consult that had been reviewed, the patient physiological factors indicated that there is a high-risk probability of darker skin to have change in pigmentation.The patient also has thicker scarring than usual as noted in the adjacent supra sternal incision.This could possibly have a increased risk of developing scarring.In conclusion due to the evidence of hyperpigmentation scarring and not knowing if this the condition will fade over time, we have decided to conservatively report this issue.
