    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    (B)(4). DEVICE EVALUATION: THE PUMP HAS BEEN RETURNED AND EVALUATED BY PRODUCT ANALYSIS ON (B)(4) 2011 WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS: INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE KEYPAD WAS TORN OFF AT THE OK KEYPAD BUTTON AND PEELING ALONG THE SIDE, EXPOSING THE BUTTON CONTACTS. A DAMAGED KEYPAD WILL PERMIT CONTAMINATION TO PERMEATE THE BUTTONS WHICH WILL HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON BUTTON FUNCTION. THIS SITUATION IS NOT LIKELY TO RESULT IN AN ADVERSE EVENT AS THE DAMAGED KEYPAD SHOULD BE CLEARLY VISIBLE AND WARNS THE PATIENT TO DISCONTINUE USING THE PUMP. THE OWNER'S BOOKLET INSTRUCTS THE USER TO CALL ANIMAS CUSTOMER SERVICE IF THE USER SUSPECTS THAT THE PRODUCT IS DAMAGED. EVALUATION REVEALED THAT THE UP ARROW, CONTRAST, AND OK KEYPAD BUTTONS ARE INTERMITTENTLY RESPONSIVE, AND THE DOWN ARROW KEYPAD BUTTON IS UNRESPONSIVE. THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF CONTAMINATION FOUND UNDER ALL KEY CONTACTS.
