Associated medwatch-reports: 9610612-2020-00759 ((b)(6) - sz282r), 9610612-2020-00760 ((b)(6) - sz277r).Due to the fact that no lot number was provided, a review of the device history records for the complained device is not possible.In similar cases as the described, the rod persuader was not completely / correct attached at the pedicle screw.This leads to the jamming of the instrument.The ifu figures out, to ensure the correct attaching to the head of the pedicle screw.Therefore we assume a handling error as the most likely root cause.
