    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THE MANUFACTURING LOT NUMBER ASSOCIATED WITH THIS COMPLAINT WAS NOT PROVIDED. WITHOUT THE LOT NUMBER, A DEVICE HISTORY RECORD (DHR) REVIEW COULD NOT BE PERFORMED. ALL DHR'S ARE REVIEWED FOR ACCURACY PRIOR TO PRODUCT RELEASE. THE COMPLAINT SAMPLE WAS NOT RETURNED TO THE MANUFACTURING SITE FOR REVIEW. WITHOUT THE SAMPLE, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO DETERMINE A CONFIRMED ROOT CAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. SHOULD THE SAMPLE BE RETURNED IN THE FUTURE, THIS COMPLAINT WILL BE RE-OPENED FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE INDICATES THAT AN INFECTION IS A POTENTIAL COMPLICATION INHERENT TO THESE MEDICAL PROCEDURES AND DOES NOT HAVE ASSOCIATION WITH THE DEVICES FUNCTION. A CORRECTIVE ACTION IS NOT WARRANTED AT THIS TIME. IT MUST BE NOTED THAT IN-PROCESS CONTROLS (SUCH AS PERSONNEL TRAINING, INCOMING QUALITY ACCEPTANCE TESTING FOR RAW MATERIAL, 100% IN PROCESS VISUAL INSPECTION AND VISUAL ACCEPTANCE SAMPLING) ARE IN PLACE TO PREVENT NON-CONFORMING PRODUCT FROM LEAVING THE MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS. AS PER PROCEDURE, INCOMING PERFORMS ACCEPTANCE SAMPLING INSPECTION, WHICH WOULD IDENTIFY ISSUES IN THE ADAPTER PORTS. THIS COMPLAINT WILL BE USED FOR TRACKING AND TRENDING PURPOSES.
