Manufacturer Narrative
|
A visual and functional inspection was performed on the returned device.The reported material split, cut or torn was confirmed.The reported difficult to advance could not be tested due to the condition of the returned device.The reported material deformation could not be tested, as the component was not returned.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported difficult to advance/position and material deformation; however, the reported split, cut, or torn material appears to be related to circumstances of the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
