Block h6: problem code 3191 is being used to capture the reportable issue of aborted/cancelled procedure.Block h10: investigation results: the returned lighttrail single use 600um laser fiber was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that it was returned in one piece.The piece measured 310.4 cm from the tip of the connector to the end of the exposed glass tip.The exposed glass tip measured 4 mm and appeared degraded.Examination under magnification confirmed the pattern on the tip was consistent with normal degradation.Fibers are consumable and meant to degrade with use.The fiber was tested on the laser console, which read "fiber may not be used anymore.Please connect new fiber," indicating the console successfully identified the fiber rfid and the fiber had previously been used.Light from the sma connector was bright and clear.No other issues with the device were noted.The reported event was not confirmed.The analysis of the returned device revealed that the laser console was able to identify the fiber and identified it had been previously used.Based on all gathered information and the product analysis, the complaint investigation conclusion code selected is no problem detected, as the reported complaint of rfid connection issues was not confirmed.A review of the manufacturing documentation for this device revealed that no anomalies or deviations related to the event occurred during manufacturing.A labeling review was performed and, from the information available, this device was used per the instruction for use (ifu) / product label.
