Upon receipt at our post market quality assurance laboratory this returned fiber was thoroughly analyzed.Visual analysis noted that the fiber connector was detached and not returned.The fiber was kinked and burn marks were visible near the proximal end of the fiber body.The fiber tip was in good condition.Functional testing could not be conducted due to the missing fiber connector.Review of the device history record confirmed that the device met specification prior to release.The identified kink and burn marks located on the fiber body indicate that fiber was used and may have caused or contributed to the reason for device return.
