Block h6: imdrf impact code f1001 is being used to capture the reportable event of aborted/cancelled procedure.Block h10: the returned spyscope ds ii was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that there were elevator marks on the shaft of the catheter.An image assessment for visualization was performed.Upon plugging the device into the controller, a live image was displayed.Articulation of the catheter had no effect on the image.X-ray imaging of the distal tip showed no problems with the redistribution layer (rdl).No camera wire damage was observed near the distal end.No camera wire damage was observed in the pebax region of the catheter.X-ray imaging of the handle showed no problems with the breakout region or camera wires around the strain relief.X-ray imaging shows no damage to the camera wires at the printed circuit board assembly (pcba).The handle was opened and the electrical components inside were inspected visually.There was procedural residue seen in the plastic optic fibers (pof).Visual assessment showed no problems with the camera wires in the glue feature.The bond of the glue feature to the pcba was inspected; tweezers were used to wiggle the glue feature.The connection of the camera wires to the pcba was also inspected by slightly lifting the bottom of the glue feature for each of the four camera wires using the tip of the tweezers.No impact to image was seen after these interactions.A saline test was conducted, based on residue at the pofs, and after insertion of saline, enough to reach the handle, the image was disrupted.Pink and green lines appeared on the screen followed by the initialization screen and loss of image.The reported complaint regarding poor quality image was confirmed.During product analysis, signs of use were noted in the form of witness marks and procedural residue at the pofs.A saline test was conducted, and image was disrupted.Pink and green lines appeared on the screen followed by the initialization screen and loss of image.It is likely that during procedure fluid back flowed through the optics lumen and caused a break in connection of the camera which disrupted the image.An investigation is in place to address this problem.Based on all gathered information, the probable cause selected for the image failure due to fluid in the optics lumen is cause traced to device design, which indicates that the problems are traced to the design specifications.A labeling review was performed and, from the information available, this device was used per the instructions for use (ifu) / product label.
