Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation and correction to d4, d9, e2 and e3.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, a physical device inspection could not be performed as it was reported that the customer has discarded the device.However, it is likely the suggested event occurred due to that occlusion partial or total was generated in the proximal bonding station due to misalignment of the d-mandrel or mandrel during the preparation for bonding process.The operator has not enough visibility to ensure the correct position of the d-mandrel or mandrel, causing melting material smearing occluding partial or total the diameter of the extrude.Causing two events, the first is the diameter is completely occluded which would prevent the balloon from inflating.And the second event would be that the diameter is partially occluded which would cause it to take longer to inflate or deflate.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
