Manufacturer Narrative

Neither pictures nor samples were available from customer.Per product ifu, the connections should be secured with a tie band.Through follow-up communication, it was clarified that the customer pushes the tubing on by hand and tie bands are not used to secure the connection.Review of complaints database revealed that no further similar event was recorded for this pts pack code.The tubing supplier natvar provides a cpk number for each roll of tubing that is shipped to livanova for the inner diameter of the tubing.These numbers are checked at receiving inspection, the values were checked again by qe and verified in specifications.Therefore, for these involved lots, no anomalies were found at incoming inspection.Based on the above facts and without the tubing samples availabe for investigation, it cannot be ruled out that the root cause of the reported event could be due to a customer suboptimal assembly of the lines.The risk is in the acceptable region.No specific action was currently deemed necessary.Livanova will keep monitoring the market.
