Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Issue identified during product analysis.H3: device evaluation summary: medtronic conducted an investigation based upon all information received.It was reported that this 980 ventilator failed the circuit pressure test portion of short self test (sst) with a "inspiratory autozero solenoid not operational" message.The device was available for evaluation.The service personnel (sp) inspected the ventilator, confirmed the reported issue and replaced the inspiratory flow module (ifm) printed circuit board assembly (pcba).The ventilator passed all tests and calibrations according to the manufacturer's specifications at the time of service.One ifm pcba was returned for failure investigation.The part was visually inspected with no observed anomalies.Analysis determined the ifm pcba was prior to the implementation of a change to address autozero solenoid (so1) failures; therefore, no further testing was performed.Investigation determined if so1 were to fail while in use on a patient, the ventilator response would be to enter backup ventilation (buv).The likely cause of the event was determined to be consistent with a faulty autozero solenoid (so1).There is an existing previous internal investigation regarding this issue.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.
