Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The event unit was not returned to applied medical for evaluation, however, a photo of a detached duckbill, an internal component of the seal, was provided by the complainant.Engineering determined that the geometrical structure of the duckbill did not match any components used to manufacture applied medical¿s products.Based on the photo provided by the complainant, the detached duckbill did not originate from an applied medical product.Therefore, applied medical is unable to confirm that a product malfunction occurred with an applied medical product and this incident is not reportable.
