Additional Manufacturer Narrative

H6; the reported product involved with this event was returned for evaluation and the reported failure of packaging damaged/sterility compromised was confirmed.The device was sent to the packaging engineering team who concluded that it is likely that the damage to the packaging occurred during distribution (including handling) or storage of the product.The handling may have been more aggressive that expected or an unexpected event (such as a crush) occurred.A review of the product label indicates by way of an expandable label icon "do not use if package is damaged".
