    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    FOLLOW-UP #1 DATE OF SUBMISSION (B)(4) 2013-DEVICE EVALUATION: THE PUMP HAS BEEN RETURNED AND EVALUATED BY PRODUCT ANALYSIS ON (B)(4) 2012 WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS: INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE KEYPAD WAS PEELING AT THE DOWN ARROW KEYPAD BUTTON. 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 ALL KEYPAD BUTTONS ARE RESPONDING APPROPRIATELY. THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF KEYPAD CONTAMINATION FOUND UNDER ALL KEY CONTACTS. 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.
