Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation and device evaluation.The device was returned to olympus for inspection, and the customer's complaint was confirmed.A brown foreign substance was found on the lure base.The device history record was unable to be reviewed for this device since the serial number was not provided.However, olympus only releases products to market that meet all manufacturing specifications and final product release criteria.Based on the results of the investigation, although the root cause could not be determined, it is likely that the adhesive part peeled off, then deteriorated and liquefied causing the material to seep out of the device.This supplemental report includes information added to h3.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
