Manufacturer Narrative

Concomitant medical products: boston scientific extraction balloon, unknown model, cook fusion wire lock, fs-wl-p-s.Investigation evaluation: a product evaluation was not performed in response to this report because the product said to be involved was not provided to cook for evaluation.The report could not be confirmed.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: we could not conduct a complete investigation because the product said to be involved was not returned for evaluation.A definitive cause for the reported observation could not be determined.The instructions for use advise the user that "for best results, wire guide should be kept wet." the instructions for use describe the appropriate flushing techniques for use of this coated wire guide.These techniques described include, flushing the endoscope accessory channel and/or lumen of accessory device with sterile water before wire guide insertion.If these flushing techniques are not followed or inadequate flushing occurs, this can contribute to wire guide coating damage.Prior to distribution, all fusion pre-loaded with acrobat wire guides 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: 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

During an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp), the physician used a cook fusion pre-loaded with acrobat wire guide.The pre-loaded wire guide started to strip [coating damage] while an extraction balloon was being pushed down the wire guide, and prevented the balloon from entering [the duct].The damage to the wire guide occurred around 25 cm from the tip of the wire that was inside the duct.

Manufacturer Narrative

Concomitant medical products:.Boston scientific extraction balloon, unknown model.Cook fusion wire lock, fs-wl-p-s.Investigation evaluation: our laboratory evaluation of the returned device confirmed the report.The damaged area of coating is between the 18 cm and the 18.5 cm mark on the distal end of the wire guide.The coating of the wire guide frayed between 18 cm and 18.5 cm with approximately 0.5 cm of bare core wire exposed.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 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.The instructions for use advise the user that "for best results, wire guide should be kept wet." the instructions for use describe the appropriate flushing techniques for use of this coated wire guide.These techniques described include, flushing the endoscope accessory channel and/or lumen of accessory device with sterile water before wire guide insertion.If these flushing techniques are not followed or inadequate flushing occurs, this can contribute to wire guide coating damage.Prior to distribution, all fusion pre-loaded with acrobat wire guides 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: 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.
