it was reported that the wire guide included in the wayne pneumothorax tray separated.During removal, the j wire separated, and a portion of it was retained in the patient.An additional procedure was performed to successfully retrieve the wire.No other adverse effects were reported due this occurrence.Reviews of documentation including the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), drawings, and quality control procedures for the device were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.However, 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 dhr for the reported complaint device final lot did not reveal any related quality control discrepancies.A review of the dhr for the subassembly lots revealed potentially related issues in which a total of 13 devices were scrapped, and the reminder of the lots were inspected with relevant 100% inspection activities.A complaint history search identified no other events reported for the related failure mode.Based on the available information, cook has concluded that the device was manufactured to specification and that there is no evidence suggesting nonconforming product exists either in house or in the field.Cook also reviewed product labeling.The current instructions for use "[c_t_waynemod_rev5]" state the following:
¿instructions for use
6.Advance dilator over the wire guide to achieve desired dilation.Remove dilator, being careful to maintain wire guide position.7.Attach plastic three-way stopcock to the catheter obturator.Fully straighten the curved catheter tip by advancing the catheter obturator.When fully advanced, attach the obturator to the catheter via the luer lock connection.8.Advance the catheter over the wire guide into the pleural cavity to the desired depth.9.Remove the wire guide and catheter obturator.¿
based on the information provided, no product return, and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that component failure unrelated to manufacturing or design deficiencies contributed to this incident.It is possible the wire guide was withdrawn while inside the needle causing damage to the wire guide.However, cook cannot confirm this without more information.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the 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.
