Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6: imdrf device code a0401 captures the reportable event of cutting wire break.Block h11: investigation result.The returned jagtome rx 44 was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that the cutting wire was blackened, kinked, and broken from the proximal pierce hole.Also, the working length was torn from the brown band to the green band.No other problems with the device were noted.The reported event of cutting wire break was confirmed.Upon analysis, it was found that the cutting wire was kinked and broken from the proximal pierce hole.Based on the condition of the device, the wire break could have been generated if there was contact between the device and the scope during energization or if the generator exceeded the maximum of voltage during the procedure.Also, energizing the device prior to performing sphincterotomy can compromise the cutting wire integrity and cause a premature cutting wire fatigue.Once the cutting wire breaks, any attempt to remove the device from the scope can bent the cutting wire.It is most likely that procedural or anatomical factors encountered during the use of the device could have affected the device performance and its integrity.Also, it was observed that the working length was torn from the brown band to the green band.The observed damage on the distal section is typically caused when the user pulls/removes the guidewire through the c-channel, also the technique used during loading/removing the guidewire into the device could cause the catheter gets torn.Based on all gathered information, the most probable root cause is adverse event related to procedure.A labeling review was performed and, from the information available, this device was used per the instructions for use (ifu) / product label.
