Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product event summary: the 2ach20 mapping catheter with lot number 8558770 was returned and analyzed.Visual inspection of the mapping catheter was performed.The loop, pebax tubing, introducer and lemo connector were intact with no apparent issues or damage.The electrodes were intact with no apparent issues.All electrodes were present on the loop section and no cosmetic issue or anomalies were identified.The mapping catheter shaft was broken approximately 57 inches from the lemo connector and no electrocardiogram (ecg) signal wires were broken.Functional testing was performed.The mapping catheter's continuity and impedance measurement between the electrodes and the other side of the cable showed the electrode's continuity and impedance were normal.In conclusion, the kink in the mapping catheter was confirmed through analysis and the mapping catheter failed return inspection due to a broken shaft.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
