It was reported that during an open tracheostomy procedure, the device was applied to a vessel and the clip detached from the vessel a few minutes after application.The applicator did not properly release the clip onto the vessel, resulting in vessel injury.It was noted that two devices were used and had the same issue.To resolve the issue, removal of ligatures from the operative field was done and replacement with disposable clips; ligation of the vessel using bonded suture; and vessel cauterization using bipolar electrocautery.
