Additional Manufacturer Narrative

A review of the device history record traceable to the reported lot number indicates that the product was processed and released according to the product¿s acceptance criteria.A used active fluidics management system (fms) in a tray was visually inspected and was tested using a console.The sample could be recognized by the console.The sample primed and tuned with the handpiece and the 0.9 millimeter abs (aspiration bypass system) tip and infusion sleeve from lab stock, successfully and the service data could be retrieved.No system message code displayed on console screen.Cassette max vacuum and aspiration flow rate, and irrigation flow rate were measured and met specifications.No problem was found with the returned cassette fluidics.Although the sample met specifications, the root cause of complaints investigated for message code was inconclusive.The most likely root cause is suspected to be operator error during socket bonding due to inadequate process set-up.Action was taken to determine root cause and implement corrective actions based on an observed trend for complaints of a similar nature.No patient risk is associated with message code as the error occurs during the priming and calibration of the cassette.To address root cause of system message code occurring during the vacuum test stage/priming test sequence, two corrective actions were initiated.¿ the first corrective and preventative action was to implement methods to increase drying/curing time after socket bonding and prior to testing on pods ¿ the second is to update the procedure after the first corrective action is completed.Complaints are reviewed and will be continued to be monitored at regular intervals for adverse trends.Quality assurance has reviewed this complaint and will continue to monitor data for evidence of adverse trending and take further action, as appropriate.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
