    DEVICE WAS NOT RETURNED FOR EVALUATION. THE COMPLAINT COULD NOT BE CONFIRMED, BECAUSE NO DEVICE WAS RETURNED FOR ANALYSIS. WE DID NOT RECEIVE A BATCH OR LOT NUMBER FOR THE PRODUCT INVOLVED IN THIS COMPLAINT. THEREFORE, WE WERE UNABLE TO CHECK MFG RECORDS FOR ANY RELATED NON-CONFORMANCES. COMPLAINT INFO IS TRENDED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO DETERMINE IF FURTHER INVESTIGATION IS WARRANTED.
