Investigation - evaluation: a review of complaint history, device history record, manufacturing instructions, quality control, and specifications were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.However, a document based investigation evaluation was performed.Investigation of a returned device from this lot showed that flaring of the sheath was inadequate.Based on the information provided, no product returned and the results of our investigation, it is likely that this failure was the result of an inadequate flare although this could not be confirmed.Retraining of the appropriate personnel has been performed.Per the quality engineering risk assessment no further action is required.We will continue to monitor for similar events.
