Additional Manufacturer Narrative

After further review of additional information received the following sections g1, g3, g6, h1, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3): the hair within sterile packaging reported was likely the result of a lack of standardization around variables (process, lighting, ppe) pertaining to material handling and visual inspection.Variance in applied ppe of red/blue zones, lack of operator awareness during visual inspection, inconsistency in red zone disinfection frequency, and interim product storage/cleaning are areas of concern that contributed to hair and fod in the sterile barrier system.Additionally, a lack of routine training decreased awareness around contamination complaints historically investigated, contributed to field contamination complaints of pouch sealed product.
