Retained samples of the same lot have been inspected visually and tested mechanically.Mechanical tests were performed on 3 retained samples of the claimed lot number.All tested samples were found to perform within limits.No faults could be detected.The initial reporter stated that samples of the same lot are available from the user for further investigation.We have asked to be sent customer samples of the same lot.We have requested further information on the patient, the skin preparation, if and how the skin injury had to be treated and will provide a follow up report upon receipt.

Retained samples of the same lot have been inspected visually and tested mechanically.Mechanical tests were performed on 3 retained samples of the claimed lot number.All tested samples were found to perform within limits.No faults could be detected.The involved device respectivetly samples of the claimed lot number have not been made available to us.Comparing the adhesive force of the claimed electrode type with other electrode types using the same adhesive foam has shown that there are no differences noticeable in the adhesion force.Furthermore we have examined the supplier´s cocs of the concerend foam.The documents have shown that the specified adhesion force values have not changed during the last year.We have requested several times for further information on the patient, the skin preparation, if and how the skin injury had to be treated.The initial reporter has confirmed that no further information is available.The incident has been reported because it is unknown if and how the skin injury had to be treated afterwards.The incident might not constitute a reportable event.As no further information was made available despite of repeated requests, no conclusion can be drawn what might have caused the incidents.We therefore close the investigation.
