Event or Problem Description
It was reported that the 3-lumen sphincterotome v knife wire exhibited a spark and broke.The issue occurred during a endoscopic sphincterotomy therapeutic procedure.The intended procedure was completed using a similar device.There were no reports of patient harm associated with the event.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This supplemental report is being submitted to provide results of the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.The device was returned to olympus for inspection, and the reportable malfunction was confirmed.Evaluation found the cutting wire was broken and the broken portion was scorched and melted.The event can be prevented by following the instructions for use which state: since the cutting wire is very thin, it may break off in the following cases: the distance between the papilla of vater and the cutting wire is very short, the output is too high or activated while the cutting wire touches metal parts of the endoscope, or the cutting wire is tightened too strong.When the cutting wire breaks off, its proximal end will be retracted toward the endoscope if the slider is pulled.If the slider is pushed, the cutting wire will be pushed out toward the papilla or move sideways.If the cutting wire breaks off, stop the output immediately and pull the slider completely to retract the broken cutting wire into the tube.Then withdraw the sphincterotome from the papilla.Otherwise, patient injury, such as perforations, bleeding, or lacerations within the biliary duct, and/or damage of the endoscope could result.Be sure that the rear end of the cutting wire is extended from the distal end of the endoscope.Insufficient output or unintended tissue injury may occur in case the cutting wire contacts the forceps elevator.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
