During a gastric endoscopic mucosal resection (emr) closure, a cook instinct plus endoscopic clipping device was used.When the technician opened the clip, the clip opened and immediately closed while the handle was still in the open position.The clip would not reopen and the inner catheter protruded out, in a tromboning fashion.An unintended section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.According to the initial reporter, the patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.

Manufacturer Narrative

510(k): k212323.Investigation evaluation: a product evaluation was not performed in response to this report because the product said to be involved was not provided to cook for evaluation.The report could not be confirmed.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: we could not conduct a complete investigation because the product said to be involved was not returned for evaluation.A definitive cause for the reported observation could not be determined.The instructions for use states: "uncoil device.Verify smooth handle operation and clip action.Open clip by gently moving handle spool distally (away from handle thumb ring).Once clip is fully open, do not continue advancing handle spool as clip may prematurely detach from catheter.Close clip by moving handle spool proximally until clip is fully closed.Precaution: do not continue to pull handle spool beyond tactile resistance as this may prematurely deploy clip." the instructions for use states: "with clip closed and without holding handle spool, advance device in small increments into accessory channel of gastroscope, duodenoscope, or colonoscope.Note: if difficult to advance device, relax elevator and/or straighten endoscope.¿ the ifu also includes the following precaution: ¿holding handle spool during clip advancement may prematurely deploy clip.¿ failure to follow the instructions above can result in damage to the device which may lead to premature clip deployment.Prior to distribution, all instinct plus endoscopic clipping devices are subjected to a visual inspection and functional testing to ensure device integrity.A review of the device history record confirmed that the lot said to be involved met all manufacturing requirements prior to shipment.Corrective action: corrective action is not warranted at this time based on the quality engineering risk assessment.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends and reassess the risk assessment results as post market feedback continues to become available.

Manufacturer Narrative

510(k): k212323.Investigation evaluation: the product said to be involved was returned in an open pouch from the lot number provided in the report.The label matches the product returned.Our laboratory evaluation of the product said to be involved confirmed the report.A visual examination confirmed the clip housing has separated from the coil catheter but remains attached to the drive wire, in a closed position.The clip could not be reopened.The device was viewed under magnification and a product discrepancy or anomaly that could have contributed to this reported occurrence was not observed.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: a definitive cause for this observation could not be determined because the actual use conditions could not be duplicated in the laboratory setting.Due to a variety of clinical conditions such as patient anatomy, endoscope position or progression of disease state, we could not reproduce the actual conditions of product usage during our laboratory analysis.This limits our ability to conclusively determine a cause.The instructions for use states: "uncoil device.Verify smooth handle operation and clip action.Open clip by gently moving handle spool distally (away from handle thumb ring).Once clip is fully open, do not continue advancing handle spool as clip may prematurely detach from catheter.Close clip by moving handle spool proximally until clip is fully closed.Precaution: do not continue to pull handle spool beyond tactile resistance as this may prematurely deploy clip." the instructions for use states: "with clip closed and without holding handle spool, advance device in small increments into accessory channel of gastroscope, duodenoscope, or colonoscope.Note: if difficult to advance device, relax elevator and/or straighten endoscope.¿ the ifu also includes the following precaution: ¿holding handle spool during clip advancement may prematurely deploy clip.¿ failure to follow the instructions above can result in damage to the device which may lead to premature clip deployment.Prior to distribution, all instinct plus endoscopic clipping devices are subjected to a visual inspection and functional testing to ensure device integrity.A review of the device history record confirmed that the lot said to be involved met all manufacturing requirements prior to shipment.Corrective action: corrective action is not warranted at this time based on the quality engineering risk assessment.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends and reassess the risk assessment results as post market feedback continues to become available.
