Manufacturer Narrative

The report of the autopulse platform (sn (b)(4)) displaying a "system error, out of service, revert to manual cpr" error message was confirmed during functional testing and archive data review.Root cause was determined to be a communication error.The platform was connected to the autopulse vision software and the error message was able to be cleared.The reported complaint of a damaged head restraint wires was confirmed during visual inspection of the returned autopulse platform.To remedy the issue, the top cover was replaced.The platform failed the initial functional testing due to system error (latch error 139 - unable to hold compression position) was observed upon powering up the device.As part of routine service during testing, the platform was examined and found damaged load plate cover, bent battery latch lock and stiff drive shaft when rotated due to sticky clutch.The observed physical damages were unrelated to the reported event.After replacement of the damaged parts and deburring the clutch, the platform was further tested including the load characterization check and passed the testing.The platform operated with continuous compression on both the normal and large resuscitation fixture without any issues or error messages observed.The autopulse platform is a reusable device and was manufactured in 2011.Therefore, this type of physical damage found during visual inspection is characteristic of normal wear and tear for the life of the device.The device has exceeded its expected service life of 5 years.The archive data was reviewed and contained a system error message, thus confirming customer complaint.Historical complaints were reviewed for service information related to the reported complaint and there was no previous history of complaint reported for autopulse platform with serial (b)(4).
