Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The reported malfunction was observed and attributed to a faulty test port.This is a malfunction which only impacts the self-test portion with the defibrillator.Once the multi-function connection is removed from the test port and attached to a set of electrode pads or external paddles the device performs to specification.This type of malfunction does not pose any clinical impact and does not meet our guidelines for reportability.Analysis of reports of this type has not identified an increase in trend.
