Investigation conclusion with all the available information, boston scientific concludes that the reported events of display failure and device damaged were confirmed, as pressure value error messages were identified in the generator error logs.It is probable that the error messages were related to an electrical overstress with the pressure sensor circuits, as the replacement of the insert panel resolved the event.Device history record (dhr) the device history record (dhr) confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The device service history record review was completed.The review showed that the rezum generator was installed on (b)(6) 2021.There were no other service reports available.The console was fully functional until the reported event date of issue, (b)(6) 2021.Device technical analysis upon received, the unit was thoroughly analyzed.The service department was unable to replicate the blue screen fault conditions reported.The generator passed the post (power on self-test).Syringe and delivery device were connected with no issues.Generator primed and flush as per specifications.The service department reviewed the error logs and found a number of 241 (pressure value above 3102 mmhg during vapor generation or above 800 mmhg when priming initiated) errors, which are related to an electrical overstress with the pressure sensor circuits.The insert panel in the syringe pump assembly were replaced.Labeling review a review of the device instructions for use (ifu) was completed and did not reveal any evidence of device misuse, off label use, or failure to follow instructions.Investigation conclusion based on the information available, a conclusion code of cause traced to component failure was assigned to this investigation.
