The event unit was returned to applied medical for evaluation.Visual inspection confirmed the complainant¿s experience of a broken cannula tip.Based on the condition on the returned unit and the description of the event, it is likely that the reported event was caused by the forces applied to the trocar during insertion.The probability and criticality of harm resulting from this failure have been evaluated and were found to be at an acceptable level.
