This report is being sent as follow-up no.2 to provide the completed investigation results.The actual device was not returned; therefore, an evaluation of the actual device was unable to be conducted.The complaint cannot be confirmed for closure procedural complications because a sample was not returned for assessment.Without a sample, the exact root cause cannot be determined.It is possible the band was not placed correctly initially, leading to complications resulting in a hematoma.Review of device history record (dhr) cannot be completed due to the unknown lot number.Currently no action is recommended since this risk evaluation is within the predetermined limits in the design failure mode and effects analysis (dfmea).
