Manufacturer Narrative

Other text: h6 evaluation codes: updated h10 device evaluation: one device and two photographs were submitted for evaluation.Photo one shows a the warming set next to its original packaging.The complete device is observed, but no damage or dysfunctional conditions are observed.Photo two shows the label of the reported lot and part numbers.Visual inspection of the returned device showed the proximal end female luer connector is observed to be cracked.Based on the sample returned by the customer it was not possible to replicate the issue or confirmed as manufacturing process issue.After reviewing the mitigations that are performed during the manufacturing process to detect damage component, the most probable root cause is that the broken luer connector damage occurred after the product left the manufacturing facility.A review of the device history record (dhr) shows there were no observations recorded during manufacture to suggest an issue of this nature would occur with this lot of products.No corrective actions are required because the mitigations in place were revised and are executing as is determined by procedure.This failure will continue to be monitored to determine if new actions need to be taken.
