Evaluation summary: post market vigilance (pmv) led an evaluation of one device.A visual inspection of the returned product noted: that the distal end of the obturator was gouged.The trocar and circular seal appeared intact.The duckbill seal was stretched out.The obturator was received inserted into the cannula.Prolonged insertion can cause the duckbill seal to become stretched.No other abnormalities were observed at the duckbill seal.The stopcock was intact.A functional evaluation found that the device failed an air leak test due to the stretched seal.The obturator was actuated and cut through test media cleanly.A review of the device history record indicates this product was released meeting all quality release specifications at the time of manufacture.Replication of the gouged obturator may occur when mishandled during clinical application.The root cause of the observed damage was misuse of the product.No further actions have been deemed necessary at this time.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
