1) registered internally as a complaint ((b)(4)) for further investigation by manufacturer. 2) the equipment indicated was returned to the manufacturer, tested, and found to be operating within specification. 3) a separate mdr has been created and submitted for the electrodes used (ref mdr 3010611950-2015-00005). 4) electro-cautery equipment was in use by the complainant at the same time as the natus device in question. There are known risks associated with such device to device combinations where electrodes can intercept stray radio frequency energy and result in thermal heating. Natus safety information supplied to end users states such interactions exist and warns end users that electrode disconnection may be needed to avoid such interactions (ref natus safety reference guide, label #269-594705).
