Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was returned for analysis.The reported contamination problem was able to be confirmed.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents from this lot.As the confirmed loose unknown black material inside the rhv body was lost during return analysis, a positive identification of the contamination could not be performed.It is possible that the reported contamination/noted loose unknown black material inside the body was inadvertently introduced into the rhv during preparation or during use; however this cannot be confirmed.The investigation determined a conclusive cause for the reported/noted contamination problem cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
