Manufacturer Narrative

Alleged failure: i have a shaver hand piece that is defective at surg ctr- acct# 165128 west health surgery center and am hoping we can ship them a replacement.The device began to get hot and make a clicking noise.This was tied to a recent placement agreement that was signed on 10/1, i have attached the document here.Below is the serial number on the defective handpiece.The failure alleged in the complaint record was not confirmed/duplicated during the product investigation.The probable root causes could be 1) excessive force applied to the cutter/burr by the user with poor or no suction during use.(excessive force may cause friction due to bur shaft assembly and housing assembly interaction.) (2) tissue blocking the suction pathway would prevent hot fluid from being removed from the joint.(3) poor arthroscopy pump suction.The product was returned for investigation and the failure mode will be monitored for future reoccurrence.Manufacture date is not known.
