While analysis was unable to be performed as the device was not returned, per the opinion of the physician, the root cause of the event was that the csl migrated into subcutaneous muscle however, per the x-ray's, it appears that the electrode separated from the lead body as a result of the chiropractic adjustment.The device history and sterilization record for this device serial number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.Id#: (b)(4).
