FDA Determined Cause 2 | Packaging process control |
Action | The firm notified its customers via email on 06/18/2018 and 06/19/2018. The 06/18/2018 email to a customer stated Envoy Medical would like to have the devices the customer has on site returned, as apparently, it was confirmed that each device is packaged with a wipe that shows expired just on the wipe only. Envoy will replace the recalled devices by overnight shipping replacements.
The 06/19/2018 email to a customer stated it was discovered that the sound processors (primary and backup) were previously sent to the site have a wipe in them that show an expired date on the packaging. The email also stated this is something that doesn't affect the actual sound processor itself as those are good, but just to be on the safe side, make sure the 2 sound processors currently at the site (serial #s 213658 and 213729) are returned to Envoy Medical ASAP so we can have them repackaged with wipes within their expiration dates added to the sound processor packaging. Envoy will send out 2 new Sound Processors (primary and backup).
Both emails contained Envoy Medical contact information for the consignees in case any questions or concerns arose. |
