Investigation evaluation: the product said to be involved was returned in a clear plastic bag.A lot number was not provided with the returned device.Our laboratory evaluation of the product said to be involved confirmed the report.The device was returned with a clear liquid inside of the catheter.The basket was fully retracted into the tubing and the handle was in the advanced position.During a functional test there was a grinding/scraping sound when the handle was manipulated with no movement from the basket.The handle was disassembled, and it was noted that the drive wire was separated from the handle with nesting of the wire inside the purple hub.For further evaluation of the drive wire cable and basket, the catheter was cut to push the drive wire cable out of the sheath.The basket was fully formed and intact with a dark green substance on the basket wires.Evidence of solder was present on the handle cannula at the joint.No other anomalies were detected with the device.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: our laboratory evaluation confirmed the report of unable to open the basket.This report was due to a separation of the device in the handle.The cause of the separation is unknown.The instructions for use also states: "confirm desired position of basket sheath relative to target.Advance basket out of sheath.Caution: pulling on sheath while advancing or retracting basket may damage device, rendering it inoperable." basket deployment difficulties and buckling/breaking of the drive wire can occur if the device experiences excessive pressure.Resistance in basket movement and bends in the catheter can occur if the elevator of the endoscope is used to deflect the device at a sharp angle.Prior to distribution, all memory ii double lumen extraction baskets are subjected to a visual inspection and functional testing to ensure device integrity.A review of the device history record confirmed that the lot said to be involved met all manufacturing requirements prior to shipment.Corrective action: corrective action is not warranted at this time based on the quality engineering risk assessment.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends and reassess the risk assessment results as post market feedback continues to become available.
