Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Visual inspection: tip of the device was confirmed to be slightly bent laterally.Device and complaint history records were reviewed for this lot, and no relevant manufacturing issues or similar complaints were identified.As the device was manufactured in 2012, it is likely that repeated use of the instrument during its service life weakened the material integrity at the tip, contributing to tip deformation.
