Manufacturer Narrative

The event unit was returned to applied medical for evaluation.The bead and a portion of the tissue bag were positioned inside of the formed tube.The bottom of the tissue bag had been cut.The event unit was disassembled and the pawl, an internal component of the device, was deformed.When the actuator was removed from the formed tube, the supports and cap were no longer attached to the event unit.Based on the event description and evaluation of the returned unit, it is likely the event was caused by a jammed cord loop, which resulted in the user cutting the tissue bag.Applied medical has reviewed the details surrounding the event and is unable to determine the exact root cause of the event.
