Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Complaint allegation is confirmed.One unpackaged ar-6069-45r/ batch 15215387, was received for investigation.Upon visual inspection, no problems were found were noted with the device.Functional testing noted resistance when engaging the wheel.Additionally, the wire only advanced 1cm from the tip.The thumbwheels should be advanced slowly in a backward movement to advance the suture.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to user error due to excessive force being used when engaging the wheel.
