A visual examination of the complaint device revealed that the packaging was cut in a number of places and had a hole on the right side of the product label.The noted defect likely occurred due to handling of the device or portion of the device without direct patient contact either during shipping, unpacking or preparation of the device for the procedure.Therefore, the most probable root cause of this complaint is handling damage.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.
