A visual examination of the returned complaint device showed that the sterile packaging (tyvek) was partially opened and presented a crack on its original tray near the rear part of the gauge of the encore device.The noted defect can be addressed by (b)(4), which traced back to the design specifications which include but are not limited to the device requirements, testing processes, hazard analysis, implementation strategy, and user needs.Therefore, the most probable root cause of this complaint is design specification.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.A search of the complaint database revealed that no other complaints exist for the specified lot.
