Manufacturer Narrative

The reported event was inconclusive.No sample was returned for evaluation.A potential root cause for this failure could be due to "low flow due to over-lamination of foam to film due to temp controller set too high, belt speed controller set too low or failed, nip roller pressure regulator set too high, upper belt temperature is > 85 deg c".The lot number was unknown; therefore, the device history record could not be reviewed.Unable to perform labelling review due to unknown product code.Although the product family was unknown, the arctic el pad product ifus were found to be adequate based on past reviews.H11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
