The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record revealed no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified did not indicate a lot-specific quality issue.Based on available information and without the device to analyze, the cause of the reported clip opening while locked & clip arms jumping during the procedure could not be determined.The cause of the reported unstable (arm positioner) & break (cable break) cannot be determined.The reported unexpected medical intervention was a result of case-specific circumstances.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
