Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The event unit was returned to applied medical for evaluation, along with a black fragment and a clear component.Visual inspection confirmed the complainant¿s experience of shield dislodgment and fragmented septum.The returned black fragment matched the missing portion of the septum, an internal rubber component of the seal.The clear component was identified to be the shield, an internal plastic component of the seal.Based on the condition of the returned unit and description of the event, it is likely that the dislodged shield was caused by the non-axial insertion or removal of asymmetrical instruments through the trocar.Applied medical¿s instructions for use (ifu) states that, "extra care should be used when inserting angular and asymmetrical instruments, such as 'j' hooks and clip appliers.All instruments should be centered axially when inserted through the seal to prevent tearing." applied medical has performed a historical trend analysis and review of production records, and no relevant documentations were identified.
