    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    FOLLOW-UP #1 DATE OF SUBMISSION 11/28/2012-DEVICE EVALUATION: THE PUMP HAS BEEN RETURNED AND EVALUATED BY PRODUCT ANALYSIS ON (B)(4) 2012 WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS: THE KEYPAD WAS FOUND TO BE INTACT; NO PEELING OR LIFTING WAS OBSERVED. EVALUATION REVEALED THAT THE OK KEYPAD BUTTON IS INTERMITTENTLY RESPONSIVE. THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF KEYPAD CONTAMINATION FOUND UNDER ALL KEY CONTACTS. THE BOLUS BUTTON COVER IS PARTIALLY DETACHED AND INTERMITTENT DUE TO CONTAMINATION UNDER THE BOLUS BUTTON. A DAMAGED BUTTON COVER 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 BUTTON 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. UNRELATED TO THE COMPLAINT, EVALUATION REVEALED A CRACKED BATTERY COMPARTMENT AND FADED DISPLAY, WHICH HAS NO EFFECT ON INSULIN DELIVERY FUNCTION. THE USER GUIDE WARNS THAT CRACKS, CHIPS, OR DAMAGE TO THE PUMP MAY IMPACT THE BATTERY CONTACT AND/OR THE WATERPROOF FEATURE OF THE PUMP.

    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    ON (B)(6) 2012, THE REPORTER CONTACTED ANIMAS, ALLEGING THE OK KEYPAD BUTTON REQUIRED MULTIPLE PRESSES TO ELICIT A RESPONSE. THE REPORTER DENIED DAMAGE TO THE KEYPAD. THE PATIENT REPORTEDLY WORE THE PUMP EXTERIOR TO A GARMENT AND DID NOT CLEAN IT. THIS COMPLAINT IS BEING REPORTED BECAUSE THE REPORTED ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THE PRODUCT CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO AN ADVERSE EVENT.
