Section h3, h6: the device was not received for evaluation.No information was available about the status of the package using universal carrier searches.This may be because the package has not been sent yet or that the tracking number provided is invalid.However the pictures were reviewed, and revealed the discrepancy between the size of the device and the size on the label and package.A review of complaint history based on the historical data revealed similar events for the listed batch, this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.A review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.However, a review made by the quality engineering team revealed that all parts were confirmed to contain the incorrect parts than indicated on both the outer and inner packaging.At this time, we have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet product specifications at the time of manufacture.A historical review concluded that this event was previously identified and addressed through several process improvements related to training, process monitoring and in process inspection.The potential probable cause for this event is likely a manufacturing process error caused by inadequate line clearance when producing more than one batch.In addition, this event was addressed through a market removal of the product.Containment and remedial actions were performed for the impacted finished product.We will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.We consider this investigation closed.
