Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The product was not returned, and a two-year analysis confirmed no indication of an adverse trend of alleged injury with 3m¿ ioban¿ 2 antimicrobial incise drape, 6650ez.Based on the information provided, 3m is unable to determine that the cause of the incident is attributed to the 3m¿ ioban¿ 2 antimicrobial incise drape.The product instructions for use (ifu) states the drape should be applied without tension.The ifu also states the drape should be removed by gently peeling back at a 180-degree angle from the skin.3m¿ is unable to verify the leak and root cause without the sample.3m¿ will continue to monitor.
