Additional, changed, and/or corrected data.Device evaluation: visual analysis of the returned device identified red particles material was found on the shell, fold creases and one curved opening.A weight test of the device was verified and the device was within specification.A microscopic analysis was performed which identified one opening striated.Based on the device analysis the final assessment is: one opening striated in the side posterior assessed as surgical damage.Fi summary: with the information collected during the investigation, there is enough evidence to support that 19799418 was manufactured under controlled conditions in accordance with allergan procedures.Seal strength results were acceptable.Environmental monitoring results were found to be acceptable and they confirmed that there was not an adverse impact on environmental conditions, device quality or performance.The sterilization run 30017158 is not related to any additional complaint infection record reported as of today.During the trend review of all infection complaints for the period of may 2020 through apr 2022, no adverse trend was noted.Given the fact that the cause of the infection cannot be specifically associated to the manufacturing process, and there is not an adverse trend for this type of event no corrective action is deemed necessary at this time.
