Device evaluation: visual inspection of the returned magec rod revealed the rod was partially distracted with some wear/score marks on the distraction rod.The wear/score marks observed on the distraction rod would indicate the distraction rod was extended approximately 7.00 mm from its initial position.X-ray images of the internal components showed no damage and revealed the rod was partially distracted.The rod was functionally tested and could be distracted and retracted with the manual distractor as well as an external remote controller (erc).Stroke and distraction force testing was measured and they met the specification.Based on this investigation the rod was fully functional and met acceptance test specifications.
