Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The customer's glidescope spectrum single-use lopro s4 laryngoscope was returned to verathon for evaluation.A verathon technical service representative (tsr) evaluated the returned lopro s4 and was able to confirm the reported light failure.When connected to known, good, test verathon equipment, the tsr observed the light-emitting diode flickered.The customer's glidescope spectrum single-use lopro s4 larygnoscope failed verathon's device functionality testing.Upon completion of the evaluation, the device was scrapped due to there being no repairs available for the device.Corrective action is currently not required at this time.Verathon will continue to monitor for trends.
