Manufacturer Narrative

Block h6 (device codes): the problem code 1120 captures the reportable event of device not sterile.Block h10: visual examination of the returned unit revealed that the device was on its original pouch, sealed and closed.The pouch was found tore, specifically the tyvek and clear plastic.There were no other defects noted.The complaint was consistent with the reported event of packaging tore.It is possible that the way in which the device was handled and manipulated may have contributed to the failure encountered.There is no control of how the unit was stored and handled at the field, it is the most likely that the device could be handled improperly causing the damage encountered (pouch tear) this defect could be traced to transport or storage problems due to mishandling and not a manufacture related issue.Therefore, a conclusion code of cause traced to transport/storage was assigned to this complaint since problems traced to the inappropriate transport or storage of the device.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications at the time of release to distribution.
