Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Plant investigation: no parts were returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.However, an on-site evaluation was performed by a fresenius field service technician (fst).The ultrafiltration (uf) checklist was performed including calibration of the uf pump.It was documented that the machine passed all functional testing.A records review was performed on the reported serial number.An investigation of the device manufacturing records was conducted by the manufacturer.There were no non-conformances, or any associated rework identified during the manufacturing process which could be related to the reported event.In addition, the device history record (dhr) review confirmed the results of the in-progress and final quality control (qc) testing met all requirements.The investigation was not able to confirm the reported failure mode.A causal relationship between the objective evidence and the alleged event could not be determined, therefore the alleged event is unconfirmed.
