This is 1 of 2 reports linked to mfg report number 3013886523-2024-00050: a facility reported that during use of the hand drill (ins030) and the ip2p licox drill bit, it was impossible to put the licox drill bit properly in the hand drill, so the patient had a subdural hematoma.The hand drill chuck does not open enough to put the ip2p drill bit inside, and it seems to be a compatibility issue.Additional information was later received as follows: "during an implantation of ptio2 in intensive care, the ip2p substitution kit was used.The drill bit contained in the ip2p kit was used with the integra hand drill ins030.The drill bit was loose and became unfit from the hand drill in the patient's skull.The resuscitator had to remove the wick by hand.Bone splinters were identified on the ct scan as well as an intra-parenchymal hematoma on the side, linked to the introduction of the drill bit.".The incident led to extension of the duration of hospitalization and reinforced monitoring.

Manufacturer Narrative

The hand drill (b)(6) was not returned for evaluation and lot number information has not been provided; therefore, an evaluation of the "actual" device could not be performed, and device history record (dhr) could not be reviewed.Failure analysis - the ins030 drill is authorized for use with the 4 integra brand drill bits listed in the ifu (instructions for use).The unauthorized ip2 drill bit is not among those 4.Although the exact hand drill and drill bit used in the procedure that led to this complaint were not received by this site, a drill bit of similar advertised dimensions to the ip2 drill bit was paired with one of the ins030 hand drills for examination.It was confirmed that these are not compatible and will not remain steady or safe for use on a patient.Therefore, the drill chuck is not compatible with the bit used by the customer.Root cause - the root cause identified is "off-label customer use." no adverse trend has been identified; as such, no corrective action is being initiated at this time.Trends will be monitored for this and similar issues.At present, we consider this complaint to be closed.
