Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Customer service conducted troubleshooting including; verifying battery count; if the device powered on with the battery pack; and if the device powered on with the transformer.The pump powered up fine using the transformer.The customer sees no visible damage on the battery pack but the pump shuts off after 2 minutes when using the battery pack.The customer was first sent a new battery pack and then was sent a new breast pump.It was requested that she return her battery pack and pump to medela for testing and analysis.The customer was contacted by a complaint handler on multiple occasions, including in writing, to get additional information, with no response as of the date of this report.Based on the results of our internal investigation (reference number (b)(4)),it cannot be definitively concluded that the pump caused or contributed to the customer¿s mastitis.The estimated incidence of mastitis in lactating women, whether using a breast pump or not, according to published clinical literature can be as high as 33%.In fact, clinical guidelines suggest the use of a breast pump to facilitate withdrawal of breast milk during bouts of mastitis.The complaint rate of mastitis across all reported failures, across all medela breast pumps, is (b)(4)% for the period of january 2013 to august 2017.Mastitis is usually a benign, self-limiting infection with few consequences for the suckling infant.The risk of mastitis is higher among women who have breastfed previously, especially those with a history of mastitis.Riordan & wambach, 4th ed.P.294: breastfeeding and human lactation.However in this case, the mother¿s mastitis required prompt medical attention for pain relief and prescription antibiotics to avoid progression to overwhelming sepsis.
