Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Manufacturing and quality control data the prosa® was manufactured by a qualified employee on march 2018.Deviations during assembly did not occur.The product was finally tested as article fx 993t and released for packaging and sterilization and was sterilized by miethke.The prosa® has a normal pressure range of 0 to 40 cmh2o.The parameters after completion of the valve assembly were tested at a flow rate of 5 ml/h or 50 ml/h at set pressures of 0,10, 20, 30 and 40 cmh2o, and were found to meet specifications.The valve was pre-adjusted to 20 cmh2o in accordance with the specification.All tested parameters were assessed according to specifications.Visual inspection: the following observations were made during the visual inspection: deformation of the housing.Permeability test: the test showed that the prosa® is permeable.Adjustability test: the prosa® was found to be non-adjustable within the specified range.Braking force and brake function test: the brake function of the prosa® did not operate as expected.Due to the non-functionality of the brake function the braking force of the prosa® is unable to be measured.Internal inspection of product: after dismantling of the valve, no deposits were found in prosa®.Results: based on our investigation results, we can identify a non- adjustability of the valve caused by a defect of the rotor.We assume that the observed deformation is responsible for the functional impairment of the adjustability.Excessive pressure on the adjustment pin or a knock on the patient's head can impair the integrity of the valve.We can exclude a defect at the time of release.The valve met all specifications of the final inspection when released from christoph miethke gmbh & co.Kg.
