    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THE PAD DEVICE WAS INSTALLED ON (B)(6) 2009 AND OPERATED SUCCESSFULLY UNTIL (B)(6) 2011. AFTER THIS DATE THERE ARE MULTIPLE EVENTS ON THE SAME DAY WHICH WOULD INDICATE THE DEVICE WAS SWITCHING ITSELF ON AUTOMATICALLY. PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE HAS TOLD US THE PROBLEM WITH THE DEVICE CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO A FAULT IN THE MEMBRANE. THE PAD PAK, WHICH CONTAINS THE ELECTRODES AND BATTERIES, IS LABELLED FOR SINGLE USE BUT THE SAMARITAN PAD 300 AND 300P DEVICES ARE FOR MULTI-USE.

    THERE WAS NO PT INVOLVED IN THIS EVENT. THIS DEVICE MALFUNCTIONED BECAUSE IT WAS SWITCHING ITSELF ON AUTOMATICALLY. A DEVICE SWITCHING ITSELF ON AUTOMATICALLY, IF LEFT UNDETECTED COULD RESULT IN THE BATTERY BECOMING DEPLETED.
