It was reported that the wire guide from a neff percutaneous access set separated.The device was required for a jejunotomy insertion procedure.During the procedure the wire guide was advanced into a previously created tract and became stuck.The wire was retracted, but it unraveled and separated.Ultrasound showed the tip of the wire guide was retained underneath the patient's abdominal muscle but outside of the bowel.The surgical team was consulted, and retrieval of the wire tip was attempted without success.The surgical team determined the wire fragment would be retrieved surgically during reinsertion of the jejunotomy.The surgical jejunostomy has not yet been performed.No other adverse effects were reported for this incident.

Investigation ¿ evaluation it was reported that the wire guide from a neff percutaneous access set separated.The device was required for a jejunotomy insertion procedure.During the procedure, the wire guide was advanced into a previously created tract and became stuck.The wire was retracted, but it unraveled and separated.It was noted that the wire was withdrawn and manipulated through the needle.Ultrasound showed the tip of the wire guide was retained underneath the patient's abdominal muscle but outside of the bowel.The surgical team was consulted, and retrieval of the wire tip was attempted without success.The surgical team determined the wire fragment would be retrieved surgically during reinsertion of the jejunotomy.The surgical jejunostomy has not yet been performed.No other adverse effects were reported for this incident.Reviews of documentation including the complaint history, device history record (dhr), drawing, quality control procedures, and specifications, as well as a visual inspection of the returned device, were conducted during the investigation.One used device was returned for investigation.Unraveling was noted starting at the distal end of the wire guide.Cook has concluded that the device was manufactured to specification.Additionally, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The dhrs for this complaint were reviewed.The final lot did not have any nonconformances.The wire guide subassembly lots had 3 relevant non-conformances in which 53 devices were scrapped.The dchn needle subassembly lots had 3 relevant non-conformances in which 23 devices were scrapped.All nonconforming devices were scrapped, and the rest were 100% inspected per quality control.A complaint history search did not identify any other complaints on this lot at the time of this investigation.Based on the available information, cook has concluded that there is no evidence suggesting nonconforming product exists either in house or in the field.Cook also reviewed product labeling.This product is not supplied with an instructions for use (ifu) pamphlet.The wire guide holder is supplied with an l_scor label attached indicating to not withdraw or manipulate the wire guide through the needle.Based on the information provided, inspection of the returned device, and the results of the investigation, cook concludes this event to be due to a failure to follow instructions.It was reported that the wire guide was withdrawn through the needle.It is most likely the wire guide hit the sharp edge of the needle causing the distal tip to break off and the device to unravel.The wire guide holder is supplied with a label indicating to not withdraw or manipulate the wire guide through the needle.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the risk assessment no further action is required.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.
