Procedure unknown: the inserts seemed to approximate tightly at the proximal end of the clamp jaws but the distal end was slightly gapped.We have ordered 2 new v.Mueller clamps and one seems to work with the inserts and one doesn't.These inserts were used in a procedure but i'm not sure if they were from the same lot or not.Patient status - no patient injury.
