Manufacturer Narrative

H6: investigation summary no samples were received for investigation of complaint reference (b)(4); however the customer provided a photograph, which shows that the affected smartsite was bent and deformed.The details of this feedback were forwarded to the manufacturing site for investigation.The root cause of the distorted shape of the smartsite component is exposure to an external heat source that brings the component temperature above 60°c, if the smartsite is subjected to excessively high temperatures it is possible for the material to soften and deform; however a review of the manufacturing process, storage conditions and the sterilization process has not found a potential root cause for this level of excess heat.A review of the production records for lot 1017045 did not identify any in-process testing failures or quality deviations which may have caused or contributed to a report of this nature.A review of the customer feedback database indicates that this is a rare occurrence with a very small number of similar reports against the smartsite component; it is possible that there is a local environmental factor that has caused the product to reach the elevated temperature required to cause this issue (e.G.During storage or transit).See h.10.
