This supplemental medwatch report is reporting the evaluation of the device and correcting information submitted on the initial medwatch report.Please reference section b5 and h6 (device code).Evaluation: the device was returned to zoll medical corporation and the customer's report of "lines on video display" was observed upon initial testing.However, the report was not duplicated after reseating a system interconnection flex cable.The system interconnection flex cable was replaced as a precaution.The customer's report of "no power up and inappropriate shut down" was duplicated and attributed to a faulty switch on the control board.The control board was replaced.The device was recertified and returned to the customer.Analysis of reports of this type has not identified an increase in trend.
