Manufacturer Narrative

The event unit was not returned to applied medical for evaluation.As the event unit was not returned, applied medical was unable to confirm the complainant¿s experience of a broken tissue bag.In the absence of the event unit, it is difficult to determine if the broken tissue bag was caused by a manufacturing non-conformance.Applied medical has reviewed the details surrounding the event and is unable to determine the root cause of the event based on the description of the event.The probability and criticality of harm resulting from this failure have been evaluated and were found to be at an acceptable level.
