Device evaluation: one bravo ph capsule delivery device and one capsule were received for investigation.The capsule was not attached to the delivery device.Visual inspection did not reveal any damage, and appears to have functioned within specification.Functional testing could not be performed because this is a single use device and once the capsule is delivered, it cannot be functionally tested.Investigation conclusion for the failure to attach could not be reliably determined.A review of the device history record was performed and indicates that the product was released meeting finished product specifications.We were unable to confirm the customer¿s report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
