This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record (dhr) found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, the probable cause is likely some external force was applied to the distal end leading to peeling of the adhesive.In addition, since the subject product was manufactured on july 29, 2015 and about 5 years and 5 months have passed, it is possible to have been affected by aging deterioration.This issue is addressed in the instructions for use (ifu): "ultrasound gastrovideoscope gf-uct180 chapter 3 preparation and inspection 3.2 inspection of the endoscope inspect the external surface of the entire insertion section including the bending section and the distal end for dents, bulges, swelling, scratches, holes, sagging, transformation, bends, adhesion of foreign bodies, missing parts, protruding objects, or other irregularities.".
