(b)(4).The customer provided two photos for analysis: the photos show a separated guide wire and a dam-aged ars.This complaint was created to address the report of an unraveled guide wire.Based on the appearance of the damage in the photos, the event involving the unraveled guide wire was not pictured.Without the device pictured or the device returned for evaluation, complete visual inspection could not be performed, and the potential root cause could not be determined.The customer report of an untraveled guide wire was not confirmed by visual inspection of the customer supplied photos.Full complaint verification testing could not be performed as no sample was returned for analysis.A device history record review was performed based on a potential lot from sales history, and no relevant findings were identified.Without the device to evaluate, the probable cause could not be deter-mined from the available information.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.Corrected data: udi number unavailable as complainant did not report a lot number.
