The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for evaluation: yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 2021-12-21.H6: investigation summary: aa device history review was conducted for lot number 9106518.Our records show that this is the only instance of this issue occurring in this production batch.According to the sampling plan applied for product performance, this lot was accepted and released without defects being noted during the final assembly or visual inspections.Two samples were submitted to aid in our investigation.Our engineers noted one sample was returned in a sealed packaging unit and that both devices exhibited yellowing of the qsyte septum.The issue has been confirmed.Additionally, the retention samples were reviewed by our engineers.The retained samples did not exhibit similar yellowing of the septum.Based on the available results our engineers have concluded that the most likely root cause is related to environmental exposure during shipping or storage.Exposure to uv light can cause a yellowing effect on the raw material of the qsyte septum.Bd recommends reviewing local storage environment for potential exposure.
