This report is being submitted as follow up no.1 to provide the device return date in section d9, update section h3, and to provide the completed investigation results.The actual product and sample product were returned.Each product contained a guidewire and a foreign substance.Magnifying inspection of the actual guidewire found many scratches in various places in the range from approximately 1000mm from the distal end to the rear end.Magnifying inspection of the sample guidewire found many scratches in various places in the range from approximately 2000mm from the distal end to the rear end.Qualitative analysis of foreign substance in the actual product and sample product were performed by ft-ir.Each foreign substance was likely to be polytetrafluoroethylene (ptfe).The outer diameters of the actual product and the sample product were measured and confirmed to meet the specifications.The actual sample: the outer diameter of the urethane outer layer was 0.59mm.The outer diameter of the ptfe outer layer (distal side) was 0.60mm.The outer diameter of the ptfe outer layer (rear end side) was 0.58mm.The sample product: the outer diameter of the urethane outer layer was 0.59mm.The outer diameter of the ptfe outer layer (distal side) was 0.60mm.The outer diameter of the ptfe outer layer (rear end side) was 0.58mm.Review of the manufacturing record and the shipping inspection record of the involved product code/lot number combination confirmed that there were not any indications of anomaly in them.A search of the complaint file found no other similar report with the involved product code/lot number combination from other facilities.Based on the investigation result, it was likely that when the actual product was in strong contact with a hard object (e.G.The device used in combination), abrasion force exceeding the limit strength of the product was applied, resulting in foreign substance.However, since the details of the circumstances of the occurrence were unknown, it was not possible to clarify when the event occurred.Relevant ifu reference: "if any resistance is felt or if the tip's behavior and/or location seems improper, stop manipulating the guide wire and/or endotherapy accessory and determine the cause by fluoroscopy or endoscope.Continuing to manipulate the guidewire could cause patient injury, such as punctures, hemorrhages or mucous membrane damage.It may also damage the endoscope, instrument and/or endotherapy accessory.".
