This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.Please see corrections to b3, b5, e1 as this information was inadvertently left out of the prior medwatch report.Furthermore, please see the additional information to h6.The device is more than 15 years old and the device history record was unable to be reviewed.However, olympus only releases products to market that meet all manufacturing specifications and final product release criteria.Based on the results of the investigation, it¿s likely the lamp did not work due to a connection failure and deterioration of the lamp socket.The root cause of the event was unable to be identified.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
