Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The complaint allegation is confirmed.One unpackaged, ar-13997sf, (b)(6), fastpass scorpion, was received for evaluation.Visual inspection noted that the jaw doesn't close all the way.Functional testing noted that that the device was fraying the sutures when the needle was fired through.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to user error of the device due to excessive mechanical force.Dfu-0392-sub-eo warns against the usages listed to help avoid needle breakage and potential patient injury.
