Summary of event: as initially reported, prior to patient contact, the dilator was unable to be inserted into a performer introducer during preparation of the device for an unknown procedure.The device was not used, and another device was used to successfully complete the procedure.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.According to the initial reporter, the patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.Upon return and initial evaluation of the device on 22sep2023, the silicone disc was dislodged within the hub.Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), and quality control procedures were conducted during the investigation.A visual inspection and functional test of the complaint device was also conducted.The complaint device was returned to cook for investigation.The silicone disc was dislodged and pushed downward into the hub.Once the disc was removed, the dilator fit into the sheath without difficulty.No damage was noted to the shaft of the sheath or the dilator.A document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record found no relevant non-conformances on the lot.A review of complaint history found one additional complaint for this lot number, from the same customer as the complaint device.The product ifu states ¿all instruments or catheters used with this product should move freely through the valve and sheath.Damage to the valve/introducer may result when the fit is tight.¿ the information provided upon review of the device master record (dmr), dhr, ifu, and investigation of the returned device suggests that there is evidence the device was manufactured to specification.There is no evidence of non-conforming devices in-house or in the field.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.Based on the information provided and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that environmental conditions contributed to this event.High heat and humidity environments can cause the disc slits to self-heal, resulting in a partial slit/cut, which can lead to difficult insertion of the dilator and/or disc dislodgement.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation was required.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
