Manufacturer Narrative
(b)(4).The dhr for the returned instrument was reviewed and found completely without any irregularities.This instrument was produced at the tecomet, inc.Kenosha, wi facility as part of a 50-piece lot in april of 2020.Evaluation of the returned instrument shows that both sides on one of the jaws are damaged/bent in thus making it impossible to pick-up and retain a clip.We are able to validate this complaint.We are unable to determine how both sides on one of the jaws became damaged/bent-in but mishandling of this device at the end user's facility is suspected.All 50 instruments from this lot were 100% visually inspected and function tested prior to shipment to the customer as this is a standardized procedure at this facility for this product line.Due to these findings, no further actions will be taken in response to this complaint and this record will be deemed closed.
