Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) did receive a da vinci product to perform failure analysis.The horizon small clip applier instrument was analyzed and found to have one broken grip cable at the proximal end in the housing.The grip cable was fully broken near the clamping pulley.The clamping pulleys did not exhibit signs of corrosion/residue that would have contributed to the broken cable.The complaint was confirmed by failure analysis.The probable root cause of cable breakage is attributed to damage to the cable through external collisions, during use, or during reprocessing.
