Manufacturer Narrative
|
On (b)(6)2018 maquet sas became aware of an issue with one of surgical lights- volista access.It was stated that the main arm displaced from the position during surgery.Technicians inspection revealed, that the circlip in main arm is missing.There was no injury reported, however we decided to report this issue as these missing parts, in the worst case scenario, could lead to the detachment of the device and cause an adverse event.It was established that when the event occurred, the surgical light did not meet its specification and it contributed to the event.At the time when the event occurred the device was being used for a surgery.The device has been recognized as volista access surgical light with serial number (b)(4).Defective part number is ardvcs209006a.The device was manufactured (b)(6)2019 during the investigation it was found that this complaint is a second one received within last 5 years for a failure related with circlip being missing on the suspension arm.The investigation performed by the manufacturer and concluded the root cause to be related with manufacturing error, namely operator omitting an assembly step indicated and described in the work instruction.Given the circumstances and the fact that there is no apparent trend in complaints of this nature we shall continue to monitor for any further events of this nature and do not propose any further action at this time.
