Investigation summary: the event unit was returned for evaluation.Visual inspection confirmed the complainant's experience of pad detachment.Based on the condition of the returned unit, it is likely that the reported event was caused during manufacturing, either from a lack of adhesive or from repositioning or readjusting the pad during curing.The probability and criticality of harm resulting from this failure have been evaluated and were found to be at an acceptable level.Applied medical will continue to monitor its vigilance system for trends and take appropriate actions, as necessary, to ensure the performance and safety of its products.
