Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, it is likely that a force beyond the resistance strength was applied to the product when an attempt was made to crush a calculus.This caused the wire to break.However, the root cause could not be determined.The event can be detected/prevented by following the instructions for use (ifu) which state: ¿use this instrument with a hospitalization plan ready and the understanding that, if the calculus is too hard to be crushed by the lithotriptor (bml-110a-1), the instrument may become irreversibly damaged and open surgery may have to take place in order to remove the calculus.¿ ¿check that no abnormality is detected in the action of the handle.If there is any abnormality, the calculus may not be retrieved and/or the basket with calculus engaged may become impacted in the body.¿ ¿when the basket does not open and/or close smoothly, do not apply force but move the forceps elevator, set the endoscope¿s bending angle back, or move the position of the basket until the basket opens and closes smoothly.If the action of opening/closing the basket is forced, the tube may stretch and the resistance in operating the handle may increase.Also, the calculus may not be retrieved, and/or the basket with calculus engaged may become impacted in the body.¿ ¿repetition of calculus retrieval will deform and/or deteriorate this instrument.Deformation and/or deterioration may make it difficult to retrieve a calculus or could cause the basket with calculus engaged to become impacted in the body.If calculus retrieval needs to be repeated in a single case, be sure to inspect the action and the appearance before each retrieval.Stop use if any abnormality (e.G., basket wire is cut or worn, tube sheath is bent, etc.) is detected during the inspection.¿ this supplemental report includes a correction to g2 from initial medwatch.¿other¿ corrected to ¿china.¿ olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
