The customer stated they were returning both pads involved in the incidents.Only 1ea was received.The disposable pad that was returned was found to have an excessive amount of human hair stuck to the grounding pad, especially on the bottom right corner where the burn appears to have occurred on the grounding pad.The root cause has been determined to be user error as a result of not following the instruction for use.The ifu states to remove all flammable materials (hair) from the grounding pad application site.Referencing ifu mc-17550 it states: "during the surgical procedure, assure that no object obstructs the pad site." "shave all hair from the selected site.Remove any excess moisture.".Based on the above information, no further actions are required.This can be seen as the final report.If additional information is obtained that alleges any additional patient involvement or need for corrective actions, a follow up report will be submitted.
