Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Device evaluated by manufacturer: the pt2 device was returned for analysis.Visual and microscopic inspection revealed no signs of detachment at the distal tip, which was returned intact for analysis.However, the distal tip was noted to be bent.Dimensional inspection was conducted to verify the total length of the guidewire against the specifications.The specified length was 72.6 inches with an allowable tolerance of plus or minus 0.1 inches., resulting in an upper limit of 72.7 inches and a lower limit of 72.5 inches.The returned guidewire measured exactly 72.6 inches, confirming that it was received in complete condition for analysis.The reported 'distal tip detachment of device or device component' was not confirmed.Inspection of the remainder of the device presented no other damage or irregularities.
