The surgeon reported an incident while using the a1114 infinity skull clamp with a child.While in surgery the head loosened from the clamp.He used the blue screw without any other supporting device.He did not read the ifu and was not aware that the blue screw has less force than the silver screw which he normally uses for children.He thought it has the same force, even though 18 pounds is written on the screw.The operating room team was trained on (b)(6) 2014 including everything about using the blue screw with supporting devices.Additional information was requested however, the consultant refused to answer questions.
