Manufacturer Narrative
|
No product has been returned.Extended investigation has been performed for the reported complaint and it has been determined that there was no indication that the product did not meet specification.The useful life of precision xceed meter (precision xtra) is 5 years.As the manufacturing date of this product is in november 2009, it has been in distribution beyond its useful life as of the case awareness date of september 06.2017.Since the product exceeded its useful life, it is determined to have met specification when the product was released and through its lifespan.Therefore, no further investigation activities are required for the precision xceed meter.A dhr (device history review) for the precision ketone test strips was reviewed and showed the ketone test strips passed all tests before release.As the strip lot associated with this case was past its expiry date of april 30, 2018 at the time of investigation, retain testing was not performed.No further activities related to calibrators will be performed as the reported ketone test strips do not require a calibrator.All review activities conducted above, including but not limited to the final release testing specifically associated with the manufacture of this product, are sufficient information in order to show if the product has met specifications prior to release.If the product is returned, the case will be re-opened and a physical investigation will be performed.This also serves as a correction report.Was inadvertently missing from the initial mdr 30 day report.Has been updated.
