Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The livanova service representative in charge was contacted and reported that a replacement erc had been shipped to the customer to remedy the issue and no further issues have been reported after the installation of the new part.A device service history review has been performed and identified that the unit was manufactured in 2021 and no other similar events have been reported.A complaints review was conducted and, according to the results of the analysis, the most likely root causes of the issue are (i) a hardware failure of the erc (e.G.Defective zka board, defective zkb board, defective motor) and/or (ii) fluid ingress inside the housing that may have resulted in a mechanical blockage of the clamp.The risk is in the acceptable region.No specific action was currently deemed necessary.Livanova will keep monitoring the market.This report was due on (b)(6) 2023; however, due to a network disruption at livanova, the ability to submit mdrs was lost on (b)(6) 2023, before this report was ready to submit.The report was prepared and submitted immediately following restoration of the livanova systems.
