Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device subject of the reported event was returned for evaluation.During evaluation of the device, it was determined that an unknown third-party service provider had made repairs to the device.The serial number of the handle confirmed that it was from 2013; however, the device itself was manufactured in 2019.During evaluation it was also observed that three components were missing (limiting block, headed pin and set screw).The device was also missing a nipple crimp at the end of the memory wire and the memory wire was too short in length.These observations further indicate that the third-party service provider performed improper repairs to the device.The device history record (dhr) was reviewed and confirmed the device was manufactured to specifications in 2019.A complaint review was performed and confirmed this to be an isolated event.No additional issues have been reported.
