Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of past investigations, due to various factors such as the size, hardness or shape of the calculus, a load beyond the resistance strength may have applied to the product during the lithotripsy.As a result, the operating pipe and/or operating wire was likely broken, and the device could not be retracted.However, since the device was not returned for inspection, the exact cause could not be identified.The event can be detected/prevented by following the instructions for use (ifu) which state: ¿before use, thoroughly review the method of use for this instrument and bml-110a-1 in accordance with the instruction manuals.Do not use this instrument for a calculus that is assumed impossible to be crushed by a lithotriptor.The pipe or the basket wire may break, and part of this instrument may remain in the body.Use this instrument by having the settings to switch to open surgery and the hospitalization plan ready in case the calculus cannot be crushed by lithotripter bml-110a-1.A lithotriptor cannot always crush all calculi captured in the basket.Operation of this instrument is based on the assumption that open surgery is possible as an emergency measure.If the calculus is too hard, it is possible that the damages shown in chapter 5, ¿emergency treatment¿ may occur.Use the lithotriptor by considering that it may lead to damaging the instrument and that open surgery may have to take place.Before each case, prepare and inspect the instrument and bml handle as instructed below.Inspect other equipment to be used with the instrument and bml handle as instructed in their respective instruction manuals.Should the slightest irregularity be suspected, do not use the instrument or bml handle; contact olympus.Damage or irregularity may compromise patient or user safety, which poses an infection control risk, and can cause tissue irritation, perforation, bleeding, or mucous membrane damage and may result in more severe equipment damage.Never use excessive force to operate the instrument and bml handle.This could damage the instrument and/or bml handle.Keep pliers or wire cutters so that you can cut the instrument if it is damaged.Also have the olympus bml-110a-1 lithotriptor ready.Operation of this instrument is based on the assumption that open surgery is possible as an emergency measure.If the calculus is too hard, it is possible that the damages shown in, ¿emergency treatment¿ may occur.Use this instrument by considering that it may lead to damage of the instrument and that open surgery may have to take place.This instrument will deform and/or deteriorate by performing lithotripsy.When lithotripsy is repeated, it will deform and/or deteriorate furthermore.By such deformation and/or deterioration, calculus may not be crushed and/or the instrument with calculus engaged may not be removed from the body.If lithotripsy is required to be repeated in a single case, make sure to check each time that no abnormality is found in action and/or appearance (e.G.Basket wire cut or worn, tube sheath bent, notable coil sheath bent or gap etc.).Stop use when any abnormality is detected.During lithotripsy, keep the portion from the coil sheath to the bml handle straight in line with the scope¿s biopsy valve, as much as possible.If not straight, the coil sheath may bend, calculus may not be crushed, and/or the instrument with calculus engaged may not be removed from the body.Do not rotate the bml handle knob abruptly.This instrument may break, and/or calculus may not be crushed.Also, the instrument with calculus engaged may not be removed from the body.Lower the endoscope¿s forceps elevator when performing lithotripsy.If lithotripsy is performed when the elevator is not lowered, the scope or the instrument may break and/or the calculus may not be crushed.Also, the instrument with calculus engaged may not be removed from the body.If the calculus is too hard and the instrument is damaged, it may be necessary to use the bml-110a-1.In this case, also refer to the instruction manual for the bml-110a-1.¿ this supplemental report includes information added to e3 and g2.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
