Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
During our investigation we were able to determine that the adjustability of the progav 2.0 functions as described in the specifications.We also found that the valve must have been adjusted before.When the valves are delivered, they are always set to an opening pressure of 5 cmh2o, as described on the valve's sterile packaging.Based on our investigation results, we cannot determine functional deviations or other abnormalities in the product.How the abovementioned functional impairment occurred is not clear to us at the time of examination.The examination of the return has been completed with the drafting of this report.
