Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Upon receipt at boston scientific's post market laboratory the catheter was visually inspected which revealed that the irrigation extension was partially separated from the luer fitting joint of the catheter handle.The reported allegation of irrigation failure was confirmed, and the root cause for the occlusion was traced to device design.Separated tubing would prevent irrigation fluid from entering the catheter and proper irrigation would be unable to occur.
