Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation summary: the laparoscopic cap from the event unit was returned for evaluation.Upon inspection, engineering confirmed the complainant's experience of a broken cap, as a small piece was missing from the cap.Based on the condition of the returned unit and the description of the event, it is likely that the reported event was caused by the device that was inserted into the cap without a trocar.The instructions for use (ifu) states that the alexis laparoscopic system is "intended to be used during a laparoscopic surgery to seal the retracted wound or to convert the retracted wound into an additional trocar port for a 12mm trocar".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.
