Manufacturer Narrative

Block h6 (device codes): problem code a27 is being used to capture the reportable event of aborted/cancelled procedure.Block h10: the returned spyglass retrieval basket was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that the basket was in the closed position when received.The working length was kinked in several locations.The outer diameter of the sheath was measured in three points and the measurements were found within manufacturing specifications.The reported complaint was confirmed.Upon analysis, it was determined that the working length was kinked in several locations; this condition would cause problems to advance the device through the scope.It is most likely that procedural or anatomical factors encountered during the procedure could have affected the device performance and its integrity.Handling and manipulation of the device during its use can kink the device, also interaction with the scope could have kinked it.Once working length is kinked, this can cause some friction/difficulty to advance the device through the scope.Based on all gathered information, the most probable cause for this complaint is adverse event related to procedure.A review of the manufacturing documentation for this device revealed that no anomalies or deviations related to the event occurred during manufacturing.A search of the complaint database confirmed that no similar complaints exist for the specified lot.
