Manufacturer Narrative

This supplemental medwatch report is reporting the evaluation of the device.This supplemental medwatch report is also correcting information submitted on the initial medwatch report.Evaluation results: the device was not returned to zoll medical corporation for evaluation.Instead, the device activity log was returned.Review of the log did show that the device prompted a "shock advised" message.However, we were unable to determine if the device prompted to "stand clear" using the log.The "stop cpr" prompt was not issued prior to the shock advised analysis start since the device was not in a cpr cycle.The prior analysis resulted in a "check pads" due to being in a pads off state for 1 minute and 8 seconds.This does not indicate a device malfunction.The data file does not have the capability to determine if the device gave the "stand clear" prompt.Based on review of the log, there was no indication of device malfunction.This report was inadvertently submitted and reports of this nature typically do not meet zoll's reportability requirements.Analysis of reports of this type has not identified an increase in trend.
