The device history record (dhr) for lot 23k131 was reviewed and no anomalies related to the reported issue were observed.Prior to a lot¿s release, the lot must be deemed acceptable by-passing inspections that are based on a valid sampling plan.During production, inspectors routinely examine a statistical sample both physically and visually.There were no samples returned for evaluation; therefore, the affected device could not be evaluated to confirm the reported failure.As such, a root cause could not be determined.We will continue to monitor reports and take actions as applicable.
