Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The mammotome revolve dual vacuum assisted biopsy system is intended to obtain tissue samples from the breast or axillary nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities.The customer reports before the procedure began, a probe was installed on the msth1 holster and subsequently it was armed, retracting the probe's needle with a spring-loaded mechanism for rapid advancement into the desired tissue to be acquired.After arming the holster, an interruption of power to the holster occurred indicated by pop-up notification on the screen (505 error, 5v isolated voltage rail is out of tolerance).After power had been restored to the holster, the needle was "disarmed" slowly advancing the needle through motorized gear drive mechanism.The needle advanced into the patient's breast before the medical staff was prepared for this to occur.An investigation has revealed that the process of initializing the probe can move the probe's magnet out of detection proximity from the holster's integrated circuit chip (ic) purposed as sensor for detecting a probe's connection to the holster.If the holster experiences an event, such as a loss of power, upon reboot, and holster does not detect a probe because the magnet is beyond the holster sensor's field of sensitivity.If the holster does not detect a probe and is in an "armed state" prior to the loss of power, the mscm1 control module will automatically advance the needle or "disarm" to render it in a state that a new probe can be installed.This disarming process advances the needle slowly via the motor driven system as opposed to the rapid advancement, or firing, using the spring-loaded mechanism.Although there was no serious injury as a result of this event, we are submitting this report due to the potential of harm to a patient.
