    (B)(4). DATE SENT: 6/23/2022. D4: BATCH # RBCCMSS0. INVESTIGATION SUMMARY : THE PRODUCT WAS RETURNED TO ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY FOR EVALUATION. VISUAL INSPECTION WAS CONDUCTED ON THE RETURNED APPLICATOR. VISUAL ANALYSIS OF THE RETURNED SAMPLE DETERMINED THAT AN INDIVIDUAL 1-UP CARTON WAS RETURNED. THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR STICKER ON CARTON HAD BEEN TRIGGERED AND WAS PINK, INDICATED THAT THE PACKAGE WAS SUBJECTED TO A TEMPERATURE IN EXCESS OF 50°. THE DEVICE WAS OPENED AND VISUALLY INSPECTED WAS PERFORMED FOR DAMAGE TO THE BUTTRESS ATTACHMENT MATERIAL (BAM) PATTERN AND WAS FOUND TO APPEAR CONFORMING. THIS WOULD INDICATE THAT WHILE THE PACKAGE MAY HAVE BEEN SUBJECTED TO ELEVATED TEMPERATURES AT OR ABOVE 50°C, THE TEMPERATURE WAS LIKELY STILL BELOW THE ACTUAL MELTING POINT OF THAT PARTICULAR BATCH. AS PART OF OUR QUALITY PROCESS, THE MANUFACTURING RECORDS OF THIS BATCH NUMBER WERE REVIEWED, AND THE MANUFACTURING STANDARDS WERE MET PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THIS BATCH. A MANUFACTURING RECORD EVALUATION WAS PERFORMED FOR THE FINISHED DEVICE BATCH NUMBER, AND NO NON-CONFORMANCES RELATED TO THE REPORTED COMPLAINT CONDITION WERE IDENTIFIED. AS PART OF ETHICON ENDO SURGERY¿S QUALITY PROCESS, ALL DEVICES ARE MANUFACTURED, INSPECTED, AND RELEASED TO APPROVED SPECIFICATIONS. NO CONCLUSION COULD BE REACHED ON WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE REPORTED INCIDENT.
