Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device returned was found to not fit securely and was determined to have insufficient crimping on the brass posts that attach to the cautery device.
The user returned another sample of the same device and same lot that had not been used.
This was inspected and was within specification and functioned as intended.
A corrective action has been implemented to determine cause of this non-conformance.
During the manufacture process the crimping device used to perform the crimping function is tested before use and samples are inspected after crimping has been performed.
No non-conformances were found during the manufacture of this device/lot.
