Additional information provided in d.9., h.3., h.6.And h.11.No technical inquiries were received from the customer.The opened probe returned for evaluation for the report was not within the reported pak lot number reported based on radio frequency identification tag identification; therefore, no sample evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record traceable to the reported lot number, indicates that the reported product was processed and released according to the reported product¿s acceptance criteria.The photo was reviewed by the manufacturing site.One photo show a label with reported lot number.Two photos show label with lot number not related to this quality summary.Reported issue cannot be confirmed from photo.The investigation conducted a non-conformance review of the reported lot number.No deviations were identified, and all corresponding production release specifications defined in the device master record were met.Based on the evaluation of the information and materials received (the reported product and lot was not received), the investigation was unable to identify the root cause or origin of the reported event.Additionally, no manufacturing-related deficiencies were found that potentially could have contributed to the complaint.As the root cause and its origin are inconclusive, the returned sample lot number was not within the reported pak lot number based on rfid tag identification; therefore, specific actions with regard to this complaint cannot be taken.All probes are 100% visually inspected and tested for actuation, aspiration, and cut during manufacturing.Receipt of additional relevant information or supporting materials will prompt a re-evaluation of the complaint investigation.Complaint data for all company products is reviewed monthly to monitor for adverse trends.During the last review, adverse trends were observed for the reported product and event combination.Quality assurance has reviewed this complaint and will continue to monitor data for evidence of adverse trending and take further action, as appropriate.No further action warranted at this time.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).H.10 reflects all related report numbers associated with this product event that have been submitted at this time.
