Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6: imdrf device code a0401 captures the reportable event of cutting wire broken.Block h11: investigation results: the device was not returned for analysis despite good faith efforts.Media analysis was performed where it was possible to observe the capital equipment with its parameter settings; however, the photo of the device itself was not presented to determine the problem of the device; therefore, a technical analysis could not be performed.With all the available information, boston scientific concludes that the reported event of wire break could not be confirmed.The device was not returned for analysis despite good faith efforts.The customer provided a picture where it was possible to observe the capital equipment with its parameter settings, however, the photo of the device itself was not presented to determine the problem of the device.Without analysis of the actual device, there is a lack of objective evidence, or descriptive conditions of the event required to determine a probable root cause of the event.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed.The review of the dhr identified that there were no process related non-conformances, scrap, or rework performed during the production that could explain the event.The reviews ensure each device meets specification prior to release for use.There is no indication the device manufacturing process contributed to the reported complaint.Review of the instructions for use (ifu) confirmed there was relevant content and sufficient guidance with respect to the circumstances described within this complaint.No updates are required to the ifu as a result of this event.A risk review was completed and confirmed that the event of wire break was defined in the risk documentation.This event type has been accounted for during product risk analysis to support acceptable risk benefit for the product.Based on a thorough review of the reported complaint, boston scientific has assigned an investigation conclusion code of unable to exclude device problem.
