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 event could not be confirmed and it cannot be confirmed that the device met specification when released, as the device was not returned.An assignable cause of anticipated procedural complication will be assigned to this complaint as a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted with the directions for use, product labeling and/or risk documentation files.
