Manufacturer Narrative

Photographs of the customer's report were provided by the customer as part of the investigation.The photographic evidence showed that the electrode pads were assembled properly to the coated side of the styrene plastic liner.This determination was made by the folds and marking and the labels on the styrene shown in the photos.The photos suggest that at some point, the pads were removed from the coated side and were re-applied to the non-coated side of the styrene liner.This prevented any further removal from the styrene.A retained sample evaluation of lot 1020 was performed.The retained sample was unable to duplicate the customer's report.Our investigation for the customer's report was unsubstantiated.Analysis of reports of this type has not identified an increase in trend.
