    THE INITIAL REPORT WAS SUBMITTED UNDER EXEMPTION # E2017002 ONLY UNDER THE MFR REGISTRATION NUMBER OF LUMENIS LTD (THE MANUFACTURER), (B)(4). THIS EXEMPTION WAS REVOKED EFFECTIVE JUNE 30, 2019. THEREFORE, THE CURRENT SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT IS INTENDED TO COVER THE REPORTING REQUIREMENT OF THE SAME REPORTABLE EVENT FOR LUMENIS INC., THE IMPORTER, UNDER REGISTRATION NO. (B)(4). LUMENIS INVESTIGATED THE REPORTED EVENT BY CONTACTING THE USER FACILITY DIRECTLY. THREE (3) ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN MADE BY PHONE TO OBTAIN; PATIENT TREATMENT SETTINGS, PATIENT INFORMATION, PATIENT PHOTOS. AN EXAMINATION OF THE SUBJECT DEVICE BY A LUMENIS TECHNICAL ENGINEER STATED CUSTOMER HAD AN ISSUE WITH ENERGY DURING USE. CALIBRATED ENERGY OF HS HAND PIECE AND CONFIRMED ENERGY AT VARIOUS SETTINGS. REPLACED SOLAR DETECTOR FOR PREVENTATIVE REASONS AND RECALIBRATED ONCE AGAIN. FOUND RESULTS OF CALIBRATION THE SAME. ONCE AGAIN, VERIFIED CALIBRATION AT ALL POINTS IN THE SERVICE MANUAL FOR BOTH HS AND ET HANDPIECES. VERIFIED ENERGY IS STABLE WITH EACH PULSE. CHECKED ALL LASER PARAMETERS. VERIFIED SAFETY, MECHANICAL AND INTERFACE FUNCTIONS. VERIFIED ALL SYSTEM OPERATIONS. THE SYSTEM WAS READY FOR USE. DEVICE MALFUNCTION WASN'T THE SUSPECTED CAUSE OF THE ADVERSE EVENT. A LUMENIS CLINICAL DIRECTOR REVIEWED THE INCIDENT FORMS AND CONCLUDED THAT " PATIENT TREATED FOR LASER HAIR REMOVAL. THE PATIENT RECEIVED A TEST SPOT WITH THE ET HP AT 20J/CM AND 400MS FOUR DAYS PRIOR TO TREATMENT. ON THE TREATMENT DAY, THE PATIENT WAS TREATED IN THE RIGHT AXILLA, RIGHT ABDOMEN AND RIGHT THIGH WITH THE HS HAND PIECE AT 5.0 JOULES 400 MS 805 NM . THE PATIENT WAS REPORTED HAVING PAINFUL BLISTERS AND ALSO 3RD-DEGREE BURNS". THE CLINICAL DIRECTOR CONCLUDED THAT THIS IS A USER ERROR. TEST SPOT WAS USED WITH AN ET HANDPIECE THAT CONTAINS A CHILL TIP TO PROTECT THE EPIDERMIS. THE ACTUAL TREATMENT WAS THEN CHANGED TO THE HS HANDPIECE WHICH DOES NOT CONTAIN THE CHILL TIP AND THEREFORE NO ADDITIONAL EPIDERMAL PROTECTION. THE SEVERITY OF THIS CASE IS CONSIDERED AS MODERATE (WITH A RANKING OF 6 OUT OF 10). ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION RECEIVED THERE WAS NO DEVICE MALFUNCTION. REGARDING THE CLINICAL EVALUATION THERE WAS A USER ERROR, THE TREATMENT WAS PERFORMED BY HS HANDPIECE, BUT THE TEST SPOT WAS PERFORMED BY ET HANDPIECE. FINALLY THE HAZARD SEVERITY WAS RATED AS MODERATE INJURY. THEREFORE THIS CASE WAS DETERMINED AS REPORTABLE. LUMENIS IS CLOSING THIS COMPLAINT, BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THIS FAILURE MODE; COMPLAINT TRENDING WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR PER GLOBAL COMPLAINT HANDLING SOP (DOC NO. (B)(4)) AND PER POST MARKETING SURVEILLANCE PROCEDURE (DOC NO. (B)(4)).
