Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
A review of customer provided image was performed by a regulatory post market surveillance (rpms) analyst.The image did not depict obvious damage on the cable.Intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) did receive the 8mm permanent cautery hook (pch) instrument to perform failure analysis.The instrument was analyzed and the grip cable was found to be from its normal position at the distal idler pulley.The cable was not broken.The probable root cause of a derailed grip cable is attributed to a loss of cable tension which may have resulted from a stretched cable due to an unknown component failure.
