Clarification of d6a partial date of 1-jan-2014 was provided.Additional and/or corrected data: d9, h3, h6.Device evaluation:
per the investigation procedure, the device is analyzed through visual inspection microscopic inspection if openings are observed and a weight verification.Per the analysis performed, the assessments of the complaints and any potential manufacturing issue are displayed along with any further actions required:
rupture: observed an opening through microscopic inspection assessed as fold flaw opening.No further actions are required as it is not related to the manufacturing process.Granuloma: unable to observe through visual inspection as it is a physiological phenomenon.None of the other observations performed during the device analysis (creases and non penetrating nicks) are found to be potentially related to the manufacturing process, and, therefore, no further actions are required for these observations.
