Additional Manufacturer Narrative
A trained cynosure lutronic field service engineer went to the treatment provider site for a device evaluation.During this time, the reported issue was unable to be duplicated.The device was subjected to multiple tests including full functionality testing, energy tests and full visual inspection with no discrepancies observed.The device was found to be working within published specifications.It is undetermined what caused the reported incident.A member of the cynosure lutronic clinical team made contact with the treatment provider and determined that the provider treated the patient with an off label indication at their own discretion.It is unknown if this contributed to the reported loud pop, spark and black mark that was reported to be left on the patient, or the red mark that remained on the patients nose one month post treatment.To reduce the probability of reoccurrence, the most recent device quick start guide was sent to the treatment site.Cryogen is applied to the treatment site during vascular treatment to precool the skin.The cryogen begins to vaporize from the surface of the skin shortly after contact.The laser fires onto the surface of the skin after a delay time.The spark/ignition events occur when residual cryogen vapors remaining on the skin surface interact with the high-energy 1064 nm laser fluence.Longer pre-cooling and delay times increase the likelihood of uneven vapor accumulation, thereby elevating the risk of ignition.This can be observed as a spark and can result in topical burn.The event is reportable per fda medical device reporting title 21 cfr part 803 since a malfunctioned occurred and would likely cause or contribute to a serious injury if the malfunction were to recur.
 
Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during vessel treatment on the nose and cheeks, a loud "pop" sound was heard followed by a spark and a black soot mark was left on the patient.The soot was wiped away and when the patient returned for follow-up treatment approximately a month later, there was a red circle on the nose that started to scab.
