Upon receipt of this fiber at our quality assurance laboratory, this device was thoroughly analyzed.Visual analysis identified that the that the fiber was broken in two pieces, confirming the reported event.The product analysis indicates that it is probably that procedural handling of the device during set-up and use could contributed to the fiber breaks.A partial body break or kink could have occurred during use and when it was inserted into the scope and fired it and that could lead to a fiber break.It is likely that procedural handling and procedural conditions of the device during set-up and use contributed to the fiber body break in two pieces, leading to the reported event.Based on review of all information available and analysis results, a conclusion code of cause traced to component failure was assigned to this investigation.Correction made to d3 manufacture name, manufacture address, manufacturer city, manufacturer zip/postal code, manufacturer country, manufacturer email, g1 mfr site facility name, mfr site address 1, mfr site city, mfr site state, mfr site zip, mfr site country, mfr site phone, h6 conclusion code.
