Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being filed to provide additional information in a.2, a.3, a.4, b.6, e.1, e.3, h.6 and h.10.Investigation: the run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.A conclusive root cause for the decrease in potassium levels for this procedure could not be identified.The system operated as intended and the procedure was run within standard operating limits (i.E.Not in ¿caution status¿).Review of the aim images showed that the images were hazy possibly due to dirt or film on the lighting components.It is recommended to clean these components as explained in the spectra optia system operators manual to help optimize system performance.This is likely unrelated to the decrease in potassium levels but should be addressed.According to therapeutic apheresis: a physician's handbook, adverse events occur during therapeutic procedures with a frequency of 4.8%.A disposable history search found three other reports of a similar issue associated with lot 1902083130 from the same clinical trial.Investigation is in process.A follow up report will be provided.
