    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    (B)(4). EVALUATION OF THE RETURNED DEVICE REVEALED THAT A POSTERIOR NEEDLE-TO-CUFF MISS OCCURRED DURING NEEDLE DEPLOYMENT AS EVIDENCED BY UNTOUCHED POSTERIOR CUFF TABS AND UNDAMAGED POSTERIOR NEEDLE, INDICATING NO ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN THESE TWO COMPONENTS. DURING LAB TESTING, THE NEEDLE PLUNGER WAS REINSERTED RESULTING IN ACCEPTABLE NEEDLE TRAJECTORY AND PUSH MANDREL TRAVEL. THE NEEDLE TRAJECTORY OF EVERY DEVICE IS CHECKED TWICE DURING MANUFACTURING. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION, THE PROBABLE ROOT CAUSE FOR THE POSTERIOR NEEDLE-TO-CUFF MISS IS NEEDLE DEFLECTION DURING NEEDLE PLUNGER DEPLOYMENT DUE TO INTERACTION WITH HUMAN TISSUE OR A FAILURE TO MAINTAIN A STABLE POSITION OF THE DEVICE WITH RESPECT TO THE TISSUE TRACT. NO MANUFACTURING OR QUALITY ISSUE WAS DETECTED. A REVIEW OF THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORD FOR THIS LOT DID NOT PRODUCE ANY FINDINGS RELEVANT TO THIS REPORT.
