Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The evaluation of the event is ongoing.Should additional relevant information become available, a supplemental report will be submitted.
 
Event or Problem Description
It was reported during a therapeutic tonsil procedure while using the ultrasonic surgical device, a child received a second-degree mucosal burn on the lips and inner cheeks.The customer stated the problem was thought to be heat from a damaged black sheath that fits over the hook causing swollen lips and cheek burns after the procedure.Upon customer follow-up, it was reported the patient experienced very severe pain requiring local treatment, and the burn was still visible on the lip with esthetical consequences.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation and to provide additional information received through follow up (b3, b5, and d10).A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, it is likely that the reported event occurred due to the following mechanisms: 1.Prolonged output with the combined use of the sonosurg short hook 5mm (t3080) led to a rise in temperature in its insertion section, resulting in high temperatures.2.The heated insertion section came into contact with the inner surfaces of the patient¿s lips and cheek.However, the subject device was not returned and the root cause could not be specified.The event can be detected/prevented by following the instructions for use which state: "before activating the output, be sure that the probe comes into contact with the target tissue, and confirm that there is sufficient clearance between the tip probe and non-target tissue." "whenever possible, avoid touching the insertion section of the sheath in contact with tissue.If ultrasonic output is activated for a long time, the surface temperature of the insertion section rises and it could cause burns to tissue with which it comes in contact." "the probe becomes hot due to extended ultrasonic output.Do not let it come in contact with tissues other than the target tissue because it may burn the tissue." "since the temperature of the tip probe rises with continued use of the instrument, ensure that the instrument does not come in contact with non-target tissue.Otherwise, a burn may occur." olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
