Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation: visual inspection: bacteseal catheter used distal organic particles in pediatric prechamber.Permeability test: a permeability test has shown that both valves are permeable.Computer controlled test: the results show that the valves operate within the accepted tolerance in both positions.Adjustment test: the progav 2.0 was tested and is adjustable to all specified pressures.Klick force and brake function test: the brake functionality test has shown that the brake function is fully operational and the klick force is within the given tolerances.Internal inspection: after dismantling of the valves, minimal deposits were found in progav 2.0 and no deposits were found in the shuntassistant 2.0.Results: we would like to point out in advance that after the revision operation there was already done the permeability test.At the time of the investigation, it was not clear to us how the mentioned functional impairment occurred.No functional deviations were detected.Deposits caused by natural substances in the cerebrospinal fluid, such as protein, blood or tissue particles, are among the known and unavoidable risks and side effects of hydrocephalus therapy.Small amounts of non-visible deposits/proteins might compromise the integrity of the valve.We can exclude a defect at the time of release.The shunt system met all specifications of the final inspection when released from christoph miethke (b)(4).No further regulatory actions are required from our point of view.
