Manufacturer Narrative

The event unit was not returned for evaluation.In the absence of the subject device, it is difficult to determine the root cause.The most likely root cause of the trocar shield dislodgement is the insertion of an angular or bent instrument.The instructions for use (ifu), warns that "extra care should be used when inserting angular and asymmetrical instruments." all instruments should be centered axially when inserted through the shield to prevent dislodgement.Applied medical will continue to monitor its vigilance system for trends and take appropriate actions as necessary to ensure the performance and safety of its products.In accordance to 21 cfr 803.56, if additional information is obtained which was not known or was not available when this report was submitted, a supplemental report will be submitted to the fda.
