Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was returned to the factory for evaluation.The device showed no signs of clinical usage and no evidence of blood.A visual inspection was conducted.The rubber insulation that connects to the connector was broken.The device was evaluated for connector function.The cable was able to provide a secure connection that connected and disconnected without incident.An electrical evaluation was performed.A pre-cautery test was performed per the instruction for use (ifu) with a reference hemopro 2, extension cable and reference power supply.The device failed the pre-cautery test; it provided intermittent energy to the device.Based upon the evaluation results, the reported complaint was confirmed for "intermittent/failed to deliver energy".A lot history search is not applicable because this is a reusable, non-serialized oem device for which the lot number was not provided to us.A ship history is not likely to identify the correct lot for the reported device.(b)(4).
