Block h6: imdrf device code a040601 captures the reportable investigation results of cutting wire kinked.Block h11: the returned stonetome was analyzed, and a visual evaluation noted that the working length was twisted and the pierce holes were misaligned.Additionally, the cutting wire was not aligned with the curvature of the working length and also was bent.No other problems with the device were noted.The product analysis revealed that the cutting wire was not aligned with the curvature of the working length and also it was bent.This condition could have been generated during manipulation or attempts to orient the cutting wire for insertion and stress was applied to the device, which may have contributed to the cutting wire becoming bent and the working length appearing twisted.Additionally, the cutting wire was not aligned with the curvature of the working length and also was bent.The investigation to address this problem is in progress.Based on all gathered information, the most probable root cause of this complaint is cause linked to device but unable to trace more specifically.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed.The review of the dhr identified that there were no process related non-conformances, scrap, or rework performed during the production that could explain the event.The reviews ensure each device meets specification prior to release for use.There is no indication the device manufacturing process contributed to the reported complaint.
