Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The product was returned for investigation and the reported failure mode was not confirmed.Alleged failure: we need to file a complaint as this shaver hand piece created a 2nd degree burn on a patient 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 failure mode will be monitored for future reoccurrence.
