Updated fields: d9, g3, g6, h2, h3, h6, h10.The disposable perforator (id 261221) was returned for evaluation.Device history record (dhr) - there is no indication that the production process may have contributed to this complaint.All test results passed procedural specifications.Failure analysis - the perforator unit was inspected using the unaided eye: anomalies observed were a lightly soiled perforator and a worn eo label and damaged sleeve.The ifu testing procedure was performed, and the following was observed; the inner and outer drill were frozen and had to be freed before performing the spring test.Once freed, the spring test performed as intended.Functional testing was performed using the same protocol it underwent at finished goods testing prior to release.The unit was found to perform as intended and fulfilled the acceptance criteria.The complaint could not be verified through failure analysis.The root cause is undetermined and was unable to be confirmed in the complaint evaluation.No further investigation required based on the acceptability of risk and no adverse trends identified.This will be monitored and trended going forward.
