Concomitant medical products: conmed beamer electrosurgical generator.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.Photographs were provided and reviewed.An evaluation of the photographs provided confirmed the lot number, however could not confirm the report on incorrect cutting wire orientation.In the photograph provided, the cutting wire appears to be orienting in the 12 o'clock direction.Without returned of the control device, a complete evaluation could not be performed.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.A possible contributing factor to improper cutting wire orientation is 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: "upon removing device from package, uncoil and straighten sphincterotome.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 fusion omni-tome pre-loaded 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: 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.
