Manufacturer Narrative
|
Conclusion: the device history record was reviewed and showed that this product met all manufacturing specifications for product released for distribution.No issues were identified that would have impacted this event.The event is confirmed: the gap between the outer insulation and the electrode ring is caused by the outer blue insulation which slides back on the conductor wire; this may be the consequence of the handling of the lead body during manufacturing, implant procedure, implanted time on a beating heart, and / or subsequent handling.During implant clamping the blue conductor wire and then pulling on the monofilament may also result in such situation too.The reported event is unrelated to a product failure or malfunction.
