Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The information received by the manufacturer has been re-evaluated for mdr reporting and it was determined that this case does not meet the threshold for reporting and is a non-reportable event.An obstruction of flow would not be likely to cause or contribute to death or serious injury, even in a clinical setting.Additional conditions must also exist (e.G., surgical/ treatment conditions; patient factors; the unavailability of back-up or alternate therapies for greater than 24 hours; surgical delay greater than 30 minutes) before an injury could occur, and even under those conditions, the risk of patient harm is low.This event did not lead to a death or serious injury, nor would it be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if it were to recur.This event is considered not reportable pursuant to 21 cfr §803.
