The device was explanted on (b)(6) 2025, due to eri.The device was not returned for analysis.The analysis is thus based on the inspection of the quality documents associated with the manufacture of this particular device as well as the data returned for evaluation.The manufacturing process for this device was reviewed and all production steps were performed accordingly.There was no sign of any inconsistency during the manufacturing process.Particularly the final acceptance test proved the device functions to be as specified.The available data were thoroughly inspected.The data inspection revealed an unexpected battery voltage drop, which caused a corruption of the data, resulting in the reported backup mode.The last documented battery voltage was 1.5202fv, the lowest measurable value, indicating that the pacemaker can no longer provide therapy.Based on the data available for analysis the root cause for that behavior was not determinable and can only be clarified by an analysis of the device itself.However, it cannot be excluded that this occurrence resulted from a defective component.Should the device become available for analysis, this investigation will be updated.
