Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.Please see updates to h4 and h6.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.The single use repositionable clip was not returned for evaluation.Based on the results of the investigation, it¿s likely the endoscope or the rotatable clip fixing device was pulled while the clip was grasping the body cavity tissues.This applied a tensile force to the joint between the hook and the clip.As a result, the clip was difficult to detach from the hook.Furthermore, when an attempt was made to release the clip by pushing the slider, the convex area of the hook was facing down.Therefore, the hook did not detach under its own weight and the clip did not detach from the product.The root cause of the clip not releasing was unable to be determined.The instructions for use state the following warnings: ¿operation of this instrument is based on the assumption that open surgery is possible as an emergency measure if the clip cannot be detached from the instrument or if any other unexpected circumstance takes place.In this case, refer to chapter 14, ¿emergency treatment¿.Do not withdraw the instrument forcibly or change the angulation of the endoscope when the clip is grasping the tissue and is not released.Doing so may tear tissue inside the body cavity, resulting in patient injury, such as perforation, bleeding, or mucous membrane damage.Do not angulate the bending section of the endoscope or withdraw the instrument from the endoscope while the clip is grasping the tissue before being released.This could cause patient injury, such as perforation, bleeding, or mucous membrane damage.Do not try to forcibly withdraw the instrument from the endoscope if the clip cannot be detached from the instrument.Forcibly withdrawing the instrument could cause patient injury such as perforation, bleeding, or mucous membrane damage.Should the slightest irregularity and/or breakage of the parts be suspected, withdraw the instrument from the endoscope immediately according to the steps of ¿withdrawing the instrument from the endoscope¿ on page 10.Otherwise, perforation, bleeding, or mucous membrane damage may result.¿ olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
