Event Description
|
The customer reported that noise occurred on the screen when using the wm-np2 workstation set 4 with the visera elite ii video system center and endoeye flex deflectable videoscope during a therapeutic procedure.When the scope was pushed into the video system center connector three times without removing it, the customer got an electric shock with a spark.Noise on the screen disappeared due to static discharge and use of the device continued; however, the workstation also made a crackling sound and the screen blacked out.A replacement workstation was used to complete the procedure.There were no reports of burns or patient harm or impact due to this event.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.Diligence was completed and no new information was received from the customer.The device was returned to olympus for inspection, and the customer's complaint was not confirmed.The power cable plug was bent, but it could be used normally.No abnormalities such as spark marks were found on the cable.When the device was connected to the otv-s300 and turned on, the central power supply started working normally.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 the event is related to the insertion of a piece of equipment into another piece of equipment, neither of which is the workstation or transformer.Since the device malfunction was not confirmed during evaluation, the definitive root cause of the reported issue could not be determined.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
