Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation evaluation: the product said to be involved was returned in a clear plastic bag with an open pouch from the lot number provided in the report.The label matches the product returned.Our laboratory evaluation of the product said to be involved confirmed the report.During a visual examination, it was noted that one of the forcep cups was missing and not returned.The link wire associated with the missing cup is broken.The cup still attached extends beyond the expected opening area when the handle is manipulated as the other link wire is broken.The device was not tested in the endoscope due to the condition of the device.The device was returned to the supplier for further evaluation and the following was provided, "visual evaluation of the returned device confirmed the complaint of one detached cup.No damage was visible to the rest of the jaw assembly, coil cable, coating or handle components of the device.Due to the condition of the returned device, full functionality of the device could not be performed; however, it was confirmed that the device could be actuated in the u-bend and 3-coil positions.The complaint of detached cup was confirmed with visual evaluation.The device components were disassembled and removed from the device.Device components shows no internal signs of damage.When the tip assembly was disassembled, the pivot pin was missing swage.The pt's and inspection records of the tip assembly was reviewed and no defects were noted on the inspection record of the tip assembly.Reviewing the actual process, the force used by the operator on the manual press, was not a factor, as the height of the press is fixed; thus, the amount of pressure applied was not a factor.If the operator did not stack the parts correctly, stacked the last piece at an angle, or did not fan them out completely per procedure, the swage diameter of the tip assembly could be affected.(man, contributing factor).The visual inspection standards was reviewed, and the photos were inadequate.The process traveler (pt) did not include a signoff for visual inspection of the swage or a method for inspection.Work station instruction did not require inspection under magnification (method, root cause).Inspection record was reviewed, and it was determined to add additional samples at the beginning and end of the production run, as well as in the affected production documents.Documents were updated in june 2024 and affected operators were trained: the device history records were reviewed, and were manufactured in november 2023 and january 2024.There were no relevant defects noted in the manufacturing/fqc checklists.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: our laboratory evaluation of the returned device confirmed the report.The supplier provided the following, "root cause was determined to be method.The process traveler, work instructions, visual aids, and inspection records relating to this complaint were updated and made effective in june 2024.The device history record was reviewed and no anomalies were found.A visual evaluation of the device confirmed the customer's complaint.A functional evaluation could not be performed due to the condition of the returned device.Further evaluation of the device revealed the pivot pin was missing swage.Several documents were revised in june 24; the revisions included inspection of the swage under magnification and increased sample size at start up, end of shift, and incoming inspection." prior to distribution, all captura pro¿ biopsy forceps with spike are subjected to a visual inspection and functional testing to ensure device integrity.Corrective action: based on the quality engineering risk assessment no corrective action is warranted at this time.A review of the complaint history was conducted.There have been reported occurrences similar in nature during the time period reviewed.Based on this review, the likelihood of this type of report is remote.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends.
