Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
An engineering evaluation was initiated to assess for any manufacturing related processes which could be correlated to the complaint.Since the complaint affected unit was not returned for evaluation, a product non-conformance or device failure associated to manufacturing or design could not be confirmed.The lot number was not provided thus a device history record was not reviewed.The instructions for use contain the following warnings: do not apply the finger cuff on injured skin as this may cause further injury.To reduce the risk of skin irritation and tissue damage, do not monitor longer than 8 hours continuously on a single finger.To continue to monitor beyond 8 hours, use an additional finger cuff on another finger or move the cuff in use to another finger.
