Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Due to the automated mes system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.The subject device is not available; therefore, visual and functional testing as well as physical analysis cannot be performed.The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications because the product was not returned.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.Additional information provided by the customer indicated that the device was confirmed to be in good condition during preparation/prior to use on the patient and was prepared as per the dfu, continuous flush was set up and maintained throughout the clinical procedure, and the coil was not advanced or retracted with force.While there are a number of potential causes for the reported issue, because review and analysis of available information failed to identify a definitive cause and the device was not returned, an assignable cause of undeterminable will be assigned to this complaint.
