Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unavailable, or unchanged.Investigation evaluation.Description of event: it was reported a female patient underwent a sonohystogram procedure on (b)(6) 2025 in which the goldstein sonohysterography catheter was used.The acorn piece came off inside the patient.The patient reported to the physician´s office that the acorn piece had been expelled at home on (b)(6) 2025.No section of the device remained inside the patient's body.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.The complainant has not reported any adverse effects on the patient due to this occurrence.Reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), manufacturing instructions (mi), and quality control (qc) procedures, were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.Additionally, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.A review of the device history record (dhr) found no non-conformances related to the reported failure mode.A complaint history search identified one other event reported for a related failure mode.Due to the individual nature of the manufacturing and inspection process for the devices in the lots, it is unlikely that these events are an indication of device issue within the entire lot.The information provided upon review of complaint file, device history record, complaint history, and quality control documents did not provide evidence to support that the device was manufactured out of specification or to suggest items in the lot or similar devices in the field or in house were nonconforming.Cook also reviewed product labeling.The product ifu, t_j-gshc_rev4, ¿goldstein sonohysterography catheter¿ provides the following information to the user related to the reported failure mode: "note: upon removal of catheter, ensure that positioner is still on body of catheter.If still lodged in patient cervix, remove using forceps." based on the available information, no product returned, and the results of the investigation, the most likely cause for the reported event was the operator's failure to follow instructions.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.Per the quality engineering risk assessment, no further action is required.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
