Our evaluation of the risk, which follows guidance from iso 14971, indicates that the overall risk for the reported failure is low.This evaluation is based on our track and trend analysis and risk management files which are evaluated and updated constantly based on post market surveillance.All the archive samples tested were within the product specification requirements.Received sample analysis confirms the morphological features observed that includes torn and twisted surfaces, irregular sharp edges, and internal deformation lines, clearly indicates that the damage was caused by excessive torsional force applied during use.Therefore, the failure is attributed to mechanical overload resulting from improper handling or application of rotational force beyond the design limits of the component.As part of our continued commitment to our customers, sol millennium will continue to monitor the complaints trend for the reported failure mode and take any corrective action based on our procedures, if a significant pattern emerges.
