Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
As of today, the medical device is not available for analysis; therefore the device itself could not be investigated.The analysis is thus based on the inspection of the quality documents associated with the manufacture of this particular device as well as on the provided data.The manufacturing process for this device was re-investigated.All production steps had been performed accordingly.There was no sign of any inconsistency during the manufacturing process.The provided data did not include any impedance trend curve.However the impedance test performed on the (b)(6) 2018 showed a value of greater than 3000 ohms as reported in the complaint text.In spite of the available information, no conclusion can be drawn regarding the root cause of the clinical observation.An analysis of the lead would be necessary for a root cause investigation.Should additional information or the device itself become available for analysis, the investigation will be updated.
