The Venclose" RF Ablation Catheters may have been manufactured with internal wiring error. The red and yellow signal wires were soldered on swapped ports of the catheter PCB. This error in wire configuration would lead to power being applied through the proximal 3/4th of the heating coil, bypassing the thermocouple, which will then cause the generator to overdrive the catheter in an attempt to reach desired temperature set point. The wire attachment error causes the device to reach temperatures exceeding the levels intended for therapeutic efficacy, while the console is falsely indicating that temperature has not yet been reached, thus increasing the risk of harm due to excessive temperature.
