    (B)(4). EVALUATION OF THE RETURNED COMPONENTS BODY OF THE DEVICE, HANDLE TO FOOT FUNCTION, GUIDE TUBE, NEEDLE GUIDE, BRIDGE, SUTURE BEARING, EXIT RAMP AND SHEATH WERE NORMAL, THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A PRODUCT QUALITY DEFICIENCY THAT WOULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE REPORTED CUFF MISS. THE ANTERIOR CUFF WAS OUT OF THE FOOT AND THE TABS WERE BENT AND UNDISTURBED. THERE WAS A NEEDLE STRIKE MARK ON THE RIM OF THE ANTERIOR CUFF. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION FINDINGS, THE ANTERIOR CUFF WAS MISSED AND CONFIRMED THE REPORTED INCIDENT. DURING THE INVESTIGATION, A PROXY PLUNGER WAS INSERTED TO TEST THE NEEDLE TRAJECTORY AND THE RESULTS WERE ACCEPTABLE. THE MOST PROBABLE CAUSE FOR THE ANTERIOR CUFF MISS IS NEEDLE DEFLECTION DURING PLUNGER DEPLOYMENT ASSOCIATED WITH TECHNIQUE ISSUES OR INTERACTION WITH HUMAN TISSUE AS EVIDENCED BY THE NEEDLE STRIKE MARK ON THE ANTERIOR CUFF. A REVIEW OF THE FINISHED DEVICE LOT HISTORY RECORDS DID NOT REVEAL ANY NON-CONFORMING MATERIAL RECORDS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOT WHICH COULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE REPORTED EVENT. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY INDICATION OF A LOT SPECIFIC PRODUCT QUALITY DEFICIENCY. TO ASSURE THAT ALL PRODUCTS PERFORM ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATIONS THEY ARE SUBJECT TO INSPECTION DURING MANUFACTURING. IN ADDITION, A QUALITY CONTROL AUDIT INSPECTION IS PERFORMED TO VERIFY PRODUCT QUALITY.
