This supplemental report is being submitted to provide additional information.The device has not been returned to olympus medical systems corp.(omsc) but was returned to olympus (b)(4) for evaluation.(b)(4) sent the device to a third party laboratory for microbiological testing.As a result of the testing, the sample collected from the all channels of the device tested positive for unspecified microbes (<1 cfu/endoscope).The testing result cleared the (b)(6) guideline.From the device inspection result by (b)(4), omsc could not confirm the defect that caused the reported event.The instruction manual states the possibility of infection by insufficient reprocessing.The exact cause of the reported event could not be conclusively determined, because the result of microbiological testing by the third party laboratory cleared the (b)(6) guideline.However, based upon the past similar cases, the reported event may have been caused by the following: there was a difference in the reprocessing method of the device performed by the user facility and (b)(4).Contamination occurred during sample collection for microbiological testing.Device history record (dhr) review indicates that the product was manufactured and tested in accordance with all applicable procedures and met all final product release criteria.If additional information becomes available, this report will be supplemented.
