Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Review of livanova complaints database revealed no similar event since unit installation in 2016.Based on available information, since the event is isolated, it cannot be excluded that the knob was blocked due to a mechanical defect which also led to the inefficiency of the shaft angle encoder.This did not allow the speed regulation of the roller pump involved.The wearing of electro-mechanical device can be originated by the specific use condition at customer site and may have contributed to the event.The risk is in the acceptable region.No specific action was currently deemed necessary.Livanova will keep monitoring the market.
