Investigation results: 4 photos were returned for investigation.2 actual samples in opened packaging from batch 3322452, and batch 5324029 were returned for investigation.Our quality engineer inspected the returned units and photos, and confirmed the reported complaint but could not identify any manufacturing related defects.The actual sample from batch 5324029 was found to be empty.A device history record review was conducted for both batches and no quality notification was raised for similar nonconformance during the production of the batches.Conclusions: there is an indication of adhesive transferred from the top web to the bottom web on the opened seal areas, which was present on both returned samples showing that the sealing process was completed in manufacturing facility.Therefore, no assignable root cause can be established.Customer complaint trends are evaluated on a monthly basis.If the trend of a specific type of complaint warrants a formal corrective action, resources will be assigned at that time.
