Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Combination product: yes.Upon receipt, the lead under complaint was found cut 10.5 cm distal to the df4 connector pin (into 2 segments).An extraction aid was found on the distal fragment; it is reasonable to assume that the lead was cut during the surgery.The insulation was found abraded through 40 cm proximal to the lead tip.Based on the characteristics, as well as the location of the damage, it is reasonable to assume that the lead was subject to excessive mechanical forces as the result of interaction with the generator housing.Furthermore, the fixation helix was found bent and the shock coils deformed, which most likely resulted from the extraction procedure due to tensile stress.Prior to the analysis of the device, the quality documents accompanying the manufacturing process for this device were re-investigated.All production steps were performed accordingly, and in particular the final acceptance test proved the device functions to be as specified.In conclusion, the analysis did not reveal any sign of a material or manufacturing problem.
