Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Initially the adverse event was reported as mdr reportable under both the qdot micro catheter (manufacturer report number: 2029046-2026-00703) and an optrell mapping catheter with trueref technology (manufacturer report number: 2029046-2026-00713).However, during an internal review on (b)(6) 2026, the event was reassessed as only mdr reportable under the qdot micro catheter as this device delivered the energy and was most likely the device associated with the adverse event.Therefore, the optrell mapping catheter with trueref technology was reassessed as not mdr reportable.Hence, corrected the h6.Health effect - clinical code, h6.Health effect - impact code and h6.Medical device problem code fields.Manufacturer's reference number: (b)(4).
