Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device, intended for use in treatment, was not returned for evaluation and the reported event could not be confirmed.A complaint history review found related failures for the listed device; this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.The device is a reusable instrument that can be exposed to numerous surgeries and cleaning cycles.As plastics are vulnerable, damage may occur during use and possible causes could be due to the heating and cooling associated with autoclaving or prolonged use.We recommend that all reusable instruments be routinely inspected for wear and damage and replaced as necessary.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Without the return of the actual product involved, our investigation could not proceed.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
