Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history of the reported lot did not indicate a lot specific quality issue.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported difficulties.There is the potential some peeled material remains in the patient, as it cannot be seen on fluoroscopy.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
