Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, during a wrist arthroscopic procedure, the 2.0mm full radius powermini shaver stopped working as its inner shaft was broken.Surgery was completed with a back-up device instead, a 2.9 mm powermini incisor.There was a surgical delay of less than 30 minutes, and no further complications were reported.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H10: h2: h3, h6: the reported device was received for evaluation.A visual inspection revealed that it is not in its original packaging.The device was returned with the shaft bent and the inner shaft fractured below the hub.There is biological debris on the returned device.A review of device records showed there were no indications to suggest that the product did not meet manufacturing specifications upon release for distribution.A complaint history review found no similar reported events.A risk management review found that the reported failure and/or harm was documented appropriately, and there were no indications to suggest the anticipated risk is not adequate.A definitive root cause for the reported issue could not be determined.Factors that could have contributed to the failure include procedural variance, or deviations from established protocols, increasing risks and leading to unintended consequences.Other factor lines include an application of unintended inappropriate or excessive force to the device, off-axis insertion of the device, lack of irrigation during use, or an impact event inconsistent with normal use.Based on this investigation, there is no evidence to suggest a design, material or manufacturing issue.Therefore, the need for corrective action is not indicated.
