The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the lot that would have contributed to the reported event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other complaints reported from the lot.All available information was investigated, and based on the information provided, a cause for the entrapment of device with the anatomy resulting in foreign body in patient clip cannot be determined.The reported poor visualization appears to be related to procedural circumstances.Unexpected medical intervention was a result of case-specific circumstances.There is no indication of a product issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
