    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THIS ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED AS PRESENTING A DIFFERENT FAILURE MODE THAN THE ONE IDENTIFIED IN MDR NUMBER 9613299-2013-0001. DEVICE MANUFACTURING DATE IS NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. BASED ON ENGINEERING ANALYSIS THESE MEASURED GAPS AND LOOSE SCREWS DO NOT COMPROMISE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE COMPONENT AND; THEREFORE, DO NOT INTRODUCE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION. GE HEALTHCARE'S INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING. A FOLLOW UP REPORT WILL BE SUBMITTED ONCE THE INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
