Device evaluation summary: the reported bowl spill was verified during service.The service technician noticed blood leaking from the drain tube.During investigation, it was found that the centrifuge bowl height was not passing the level test and that the bowl height was incorrect due to a broken damper.The issue was resolved by adjusting the bowl height to proper specifications and by replacing the damper centrifuge assy.Preventive maintenance was performed per specifications.The instrument was serviced/analyzed in the facility by a field service technician.The instrument did not return to a medtronic facility for service/analysis.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.
