Manufacturer Narrative

Livanova received a report stating that, during priming, a mobile plastic particle was observed coming from the arterial filter.A clear picture was provided as evidence of the defect, showing an excess of material at the end of the arterial filter connector.The involved device is manufactured by external livanova assembler (medipro).The review of the similar events highlighted another complaint on the same filetr thus, the failure rate is 0,14.However, as no other similar events have been registered in the last year, it cannot be ruled out a deviation lot-related.The unit was not available for further investigation because the customer threw it away.Based on the facts above and with the information available, it cannot be ruled out that the origin of the particulates was related to a deviation during the moulding phase of the connector.The scenario was furtherly enhanced by subsequent ineffective visual controls since the observed material was not intercepted before product release.No other specific action was currently deemed necessary, livanova maintains and document periodic customer events monitoring process in order to evaluate actions for products improvement.
