Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being updated to provide investigation findings.The returned device was evaluated on 10jun2022 by olympus.The complaint was not confirmed.- the unit was connected to the clv-190 light source while powered on for about 2 hours.At random times during the burn-in tests, the distal end of the mr-6a was placed on the inspector¿s hand for several seconds, and no burning sensation occurred.-the burn test was also conducted by production team.The scope was connected to the sources for more than an hour, and unable to confirm the reported issue of scope heating up.In addition, the inspection found the light guide post was scratched and damaged, minor scratches and debris under eyepiece cover glass.The customer¿s light cord returned was also inspected.The contact surface of the cord connector was scratched and damaged.The model number of the cord was unknown, the number printed on the cord, 182133, was an invalid olympus¿ model number.A functional test on this unit could not be performed as the connector plug does not fit into any light sources available at olympus san jose facility.Dhrs (device history records) for this product has been reviewed.The device was an rex scope manufactured 10mar2021.All records showed the product met all specifications upon release.Based on the investigation, a probable root cause of the reported failure was not attributed to the mr endoscope.However, a definitive root cause of the reported complaint could not be determined at this time.As the overall incidence is remote (n=1) and a probable root cause of the reported failure was not attributed to the mr endoscope, no additional actions are required at this time.Olympus will continue to monitor the field performance of this device.The device instructions for use (ifu) states "when instruments from different manufacturers are used together, verify that any isolation or grounding is not violated; prior to use, examine each electrode and its insulation for damage; do not use if damaged."
