Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Neither the complaint instrument nor the angiographic material was provided for analysis.Therefore no technical investigation on the subject could be performed.The manufacturing history was reviewed to establish whether a deviation from the manufacturing process could be the cause for the reported event.Review of the production documentation confirmed that the instrument was manufactured according to specifications and passed all in-process and final inspections.In addition to visual inspections each instrument is tested for air tightness by means of a helium leak test.The instrument was delivered in a leak-proof condition.Based on the conducted investigations no manufacturing related root cause could be determined.The root cause is most likely related to external factors during procedure.
