Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation evaluation: our laboratory evaluation of the product said to be involved confirmed the report based on the condition of the distal end of the returned device.A visual examination of the cutting wire showed twisting at the distal end.The distal end does not represent the shape at the time of manufacture.The non-conformance documented 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: a definitive cause for this observation could not be determined because the actual prior to use testing conditions could not be duplicated in the laboratory setting.This limits our ability to conclusively determine a cause.A discrepancy or anomaly that could have contributed to the reported observation was not observed during our laboratory analysis of the returned product.Prior to distribution, all fusion omni-tome 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.

Event Description

In preparation for a procedure, the user selected a cook fusion omni-tome pre-loaded sphincterotome.According to the nurse unit manager (num), the sphinctertome was prepped for use and handed to the doctor to introduce into the endoscope biopsy channel.It was at this point that the doctor noted that the sphincterotome tip appeared to be malformed.This can be seen by just the tip of the sphinctertome appears to have body fluid contamination where it has come in contact with the biopsy channel button.This sphinctertome was kept for collection and a new sphincterotome was prepared and used successfully to complete the case.There was no reportable information at this time.The device was received on 26-dec-2018, and it was determined that the distal end of the sphincterotome was twisted and pointing in the wrong direction.This occurred prior to patient contact; there was no impact to the patient.
