This supplemental report is being submitted to provide the subject device evaluation result.The subject device was returned to olympus china.The main circuit board of the subject device was returned to olympus medical systems corp.(omsc) for investigation.Omsc reviewed the device history record (dhr) of the subject device and confirmed no irregularity.Based on the investigation, this phenomenon was attributed to the failure of the pressure sensor mounted on the main circuit board.The cause of the failure of the pressure sensor mounted on the main circuit board is presumed to be due to any of the following process errors.- oxygen entered the device and the electrode of the pressure sensor was oxidized and corroded.The wiring inside the pressure sensor was peeled off due to the oxidation corrosion.- because foreign matter (epoxy) had adhered to the mounting of the component due to a mistake, the wires inside the pressure-sensor had peeled off due to adherence of the foreign matter (epoxy).
