Event or Problem Description
|
|
Olympus medical systems corp.(omsc) was informed by the customer that during an examination using the subject device(maj-1414) when it was attached to the biopsy channel of the endoscope, the following event occurred.The needle slipped 4 times during the examination.There was no patient injury reported.The following information was provided by our service department.The needle in question goes very loosely on the maj-1414(disposable biopsy valve adapter) - and comes off accordingly.A slight noise from the engagement(fixation) can be heard and felt, but the engagement, in this case, is insufficient.The slider can release itself during normal handling without the user noticing.Comparison needle - here you don't hear any click/locking at all and the slider can only be put on the maj-1414 with force.But it holds better.This is also not a correct assembly, because the locking mechanism should always work noticeably and audibly, with sufficient fixation.We used maj-1414 which was supplied with the endoscope when testing.The same for both needles.
