Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Complaint allegation is confirmed.Upon visual inspection, it was noted that the tip was broken off and the end of the shaft was cut off.Functional testing was not performed due to the damage to the device.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed misaligned insertion; prying/leveraging the device during insertion.
