Manufacturer Narrative
|
The sample was visually inspected and was found to be conforming.The sample was then functionally tested for fit using a ring gauge and was found to be functionally conforming; the probe travels in and out of the gauge under its own weight.A review of the device history record traceable to the reported lot number indicates that the product was processed and released according to the product¿s acceptance criteria.A complaint history examination indicates there are no additional complaints associated with the lot for the reported issue.The returned sample was found to be conforming, therefore a fit issue as described in the complaint was not confirmed and a root cause cannot be determined for the complaint as described by the customer.No action was taken as the returned probe was manufactured to specifications.All probes are 100% visually inspected during the manufacturing process for excessive manufacturing materials on the needle.All assembled probe needle diameters are also 100% tested for fit into a ring gauge to insure the probe needle does not exceed a trocar opening.Complaints are reviewed and monitored at regular intervals for any significant adverse trends.No further actions are required.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
