Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information provided in d.9., h.3., h.6.And h.11.A review of the device history record traceable to the reported lot number indicates that the product was processed and released according to the product¿s acceptance criteria.The returned sample was visually inspected, and no obvious defects were found that would contribute to the reported event.The non-invasive flow sensor (nifs) on the cassette housing was in good condition.A calibrated console representing the current software version was used to test the sample.The light-emitting diode (led) rings on the console turned green as the probe connectors were engaged to the console indicating the proper communication between the probe and the console.The ball in the check valve of the drip chamber moved freely per specification.The sample could prime and pass intraocular pressure (iop) calibration successfully.No anomalies were observed during priming.The infusion pressure was measured at multiple set points throughout the console range and met specifications.Aspiration flow rate was also measured and met specifications.Fluid flowed from the tip of the probe during proportion reflux test.The probe could actuate in momentary vitrectomy mode.No damage was found on the probe manifold.Toggling the infusion and the fluid/air exchange (f/ax) modes, fluid and air flowed from the cassette to the infusion line continuously without any bubble in various settings in all sub modes.No message code appeared on the screen during functional testing.Fluid flowed from balanced salt solution (bss) to the drain bag without any interfering.No leakage was detected from the pump elastomer or on the pump area of the fluidics module.Cleaning process was able to be performed after functional test had completed.We were unable to replicate the customer's experience during laboratory evaluation.The root cause of the customer's complaint could not be established; the returned sample functioned per specifications.After investigation of this complaint, it has been determined that this sample functioned per specifications; therefore, no corrective action is required at this time.Based on our current tracking, there are no adverse trends for this reported complaint and lot.Quality assurance has reviewed this complaint and will continue to monitor data for evidence of adverse trending and take further action, as appropriate.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
