The oad was returned to csi for analysis.There were no abnormalities or damage identified with the driveshaft or crown that would have contributed to the event.There was overloading identified on the driveshaft at the lap weld and extending 1 centimeter distally.This damage prevented a test wire from passing through the device.It was unknown if the overloaded driveshaft was related to the reported event.Review of the device data log did not identify any stall events during the procedure.The root cause of the overloaded driveshaft is unable to be conclusively determined.When tested, the oad functioned as intended.The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.Csi id: (b)(4).
