The complained circuit was returned to livanova.A review of the dhr did not identify any deviations, non-conformities, or material scrap/requests relevant to the reported issue.Based on livanova investigation, a potential root cause of the tubing disconnection could be an alteration of the chemical/mechanical characteristics of the tubings.Additionally, insufficient gluing connection applied by manufacturing operators during the assembly might have contributed to the disconnection.The risk associated to the event is acceptable.No specific action is deemed necessary livanova will keep monitoring the market.
