The disposable raptor grasping device is intended to be used to grasp tissue and/or retrieve foreign bodies, excised tissue and stents during endoscopic procedures.Upon removal of the first raptor device from the scope, the device was observed to be missing a jaw component.The user could not locate the detached component, and was unsure if the component was retained in the patient or became detached after device removal from the scope.Through follow up with the user facility, us endoscopy learned that the user attempted to withdraw the raptor with grasped stent through the accessory channel of the endoscope.This technique is contrary to the instructions for use, which directs "keeping the object secured in the grasping jaws, withdraw the object together with the endoscope from the patient.Do not retract the device and the object into the endoscope; this could cause damage to the endoscope and the device".The cause of the event is attributed to the user attempting to withdraw the raptor device and retrieved object through the accessory channel of the endoscope, which is contrary to the instructions for use.The procedure was completed using a second raptor device, while withdrawing the stent together with the endoscope, as directed in the instructions for use.The device history record was reviewed and confirmed the devices were manufactured to specification.There have been no other complaints associated with this lot.The device subject of this event was not returned to us endoscopy for evaluation.In-service training was completed on 11/21/2018; there have been no further issues reported since.
