Manufacturer Narrative
Qn#(b)(4).The dhr for the returned instrument was reviewed and found completely without any irregularities.This instrument was produced at the tecomet inc.Kenosha wi facility as part of a 25 pc.Lot in (b)(6)2017.The returned instrument was evaluated and found that the open jaw gap is undersized and the knob and tube assembly with the luer flush port and cap is rotated 180 degrees from its original placement on tube assembly thus decreasing the original jaw gap as set at time of production making it difficult to pick up a clip from the cartridge thus we are able to validate the alleged complaint.After initial evaluation of the returned instrument the luer flush port was removed and the knob was rotated back 180 degrees and the flush port was re-installed and the open jaw gap was remeasured at.365 which is to print specifications of.385 +/-.025.Further evaluation showed that after returning the instrument to its original configuration that this instrument is able to pick up, retain , close and release multiple clips with and without the use of silastic test tubing.Mishandling/tampering of the returned device at the end users facility is suspected.
