Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unavailable, or unchanged.Additional/corrected information: b5.Additional information provided by the customer provides clarification regarding the event details.The device did not separate.A bend was observed prior to patient contact.There is no evidence to suggest that this device failure would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or a serious injury if the failure were to recur.Furthermore, there is no evidence that the device caused or contributed to a serious injury, as no life-threatening or permanently impairing injury was alleged, nor was intervention taken as a result of the device failure which would be required to prevent permanent impairment or damage to the patient.As such, the event is not reportable under fda 21 cfr part 803 as it does not meet the criteria for a death, serious injury, or reportable product malfunction.
