H.6.Investigation: no photos or samples were received by our quality team for evaluation therefore the failure mode could not be verified and the root cause could not be determined.A device history record could not be evaluated, as the lot number is unknown.Though an investigation by the manufacturing plant could not be done, sales and marketing did reach out to the customer.During the discussion, it was concluded that there was a lack of understanding of the new product due to lack of training provided.This is a result of covid-19 as they were not allowed to enter the hospital.
