Block e4: this event was reported to the fda via a voluntary medwatch report.The report number is 0501500000-2023-8003.Block h6 (impact code): code f19 captures the reportable event of surgical intervention.Code f23 captures the reportable event of unexpected medical intervention.Block h10: the returned trocar was analyzed.The feeding tube was not returned.Visual analysis of the device revealed that the trocar needle had punctured the sheath and was torn.Therefore, the reported complaint is confirmed.Based on the condition of the returned device, engineers determined that the problem observed could be caused by handling of the device during use; perhaps the technique used, or patient's anatomical conditions could have contributed to this event.Boston scientific has determined the most probable cause of this complaint is adverse event related to procedure.It is most likely that the adverse event occurred during the procedure and the device had no influence on event which led to the reported event.A labeling review was performed and, from the information available, this device was used per the instructions for use (ifu) / product label.Block e4 (initial reporter also sent rep to fda) has been corrected.
