Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation summary: the event unit was returned for evaluation.Upon inspection, engineering determined that the deployment mechanism was deformed, indicating that the ratchet mechanism was overridden.The likely root cause of the customer's experience is use error, as retracting the unit prior to full deployment may cause damage to the deployment mechanism and cause the bag to fall off of the supports when fully deployed.The instructions for use (ifu) instruct the user to "hold the inzii retrieval system in an upright position and push the thumb ring forward to deploy and advance the rim of the bag into the body cavity.The thumb ring must be pushed completely forward until it has reached its advancing endpoint, which is indicated by a stop." applied medical will continue to monitor its vigilance system for trends and take appropriate actions as necessary, to ensure the performance and safety of its products.In accordance to 21 cfr 803.56, if additional information is obtained which was not known or was not available when this report was submitted, a supplemental report will be submitted to the fda.
