Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.Based on the results of the investigation, the observed foreign material in the sub-water supply channel could not be identified and a definitive root cause of the issue could not be determined, as there was no deformation that might result in the retention of foreign material and no additional facility device reprocessing information was reported or available, however, the issue was likely the result of insufficient device cleaning/reprocessing.The issues may be detected/prevented by following the instructions for use sections below: chapter 3 preparation and inspection of the gif/cf/pcf-190 series operation manual.Chapter 5, "reprocessing the endoscope," of the instruction manual gif/cf/pcf-190 series reprocessing manual.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
