Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation evaluation: one (1) of the five (5) devices said to be involved was returned for evaluation.Our evaluation of the returned device confirmed the report of incorrect cutting wire orientation.During our laboratory analysis, the sphincterotome was advanced through a duodenoscope that is placed in a simulated biliary position.The duodenoscope has an accessory channel that is 4.2 mm in diameter (model number olympus tjf-160v).The catheter exited the endoscope with the cutting wire facing 2 o¿clock.The device was then bowed and the cutting wire was facing 2 o'clock (appropriate orientation is approximately 11:00 - 1:00 o'clock).The sphincterotome catheter was subjected to a close visual examination and twisting of the tubing was not observed.A discrepancy or anomaly that could have contributed to the reported event was not observed during our laboratory analysis.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: a definitive cause for this observation could not be determined because the actual use conditions could not be duplicated in the laboratory setting.Due to a variety of clinical conditions such as patient anatomy, endoscope position or progression of disease state, we could not reproduce the actual conditions of product usage during our laboratory analysis.This limits our ability to conclusively determine a cause.Improper cutting wire orientation can occur if the distal end of the catheter is shaped manually.This sphincterotome catheter is pre-curved and is provided with a pre-curved stylet in the distal tip of the catheter.This obviates the need for manual formation.The instructions for use contain the following comment: ¿note: do not apply manual pressure to tip or cutting wire of sphincterotome to influence orientation, as this may result in damage to device.¿ other factors that can contribute to improper cutting wire orientation include manipulating the handle with the catheter in a coiled position or with the precurved stylet inside the cannulating tip.The instructions for use advise the user to "uncoil and straighten sphincterotome" upon removing the device from the packaging.The user is then instructed to "carefully remove precurved stylet from cannulating tip." the instructions for use contain the following comment: "note: do not exercise handle while device is coiled or precurved stylet is in place, as this may cause damage to sphincterotome and render it inoperable." prior to distribution, all d.A.S.H.Dometip double lumen sphincterotomes are subjected to a visual inspection and functional test to ensure device integrity.A review of the device history record confirmed that the lot said to be involved met all manufacturing requirements prior to shipment.Corrective action: a review of the complaint history was conducted.The likelihood of occurrence is considered rare.Corrective action is not warranted at this time based on the quality engineering risk assessment.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends and reassess the risk assessment results as post market feedback continues to become available.
 
Event Description
