Corrective Action: All returned devices will be received into the facility and the lot number and quantity recorded on to an electronic spreadsheet. The returned product will then be stored in a secure quarantined area. At this time, management has not determined as to how the devices will be dispositioned. A protocol(s) will be written to address the destruction of the returned devices. This will be submitted to NYK-DO for approval prior to any action being taken with the returned devices. CAPA 153136 was opened. Fixtures were revised to allow for placement of the foil/gel substrate from the bottom of the foam. This is to maintain consistent dimensions on the product and not allow for float/movement of the substrate from being offset.
