Health Effect - Clinical Code	No Patient Involvement (2645)
Type of Reportable Event	Malfunction
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation evaluation: our evaluation of the product said to be involved determined the cutting wire securing component located near the distal end of the sphincterotome has disconnected from the catheter.The cutting wire is intact and remains securely attached to the sphincterotome at the proximal end.However, due to the catheter and securing component disconnection, the distal end of the cutting wire is no longer connected to the sphincterotome catheter at the distal end.The securing component is intact therefore no part of the device is missing.The cutting wire does not show evidence of cautery application.A visual examination of the catheter showed that the wire guide had been stripped to approximately 63 cm from the distal end.The catheter also showed fraying approximately 137 cm from the distal end.A product discrepancy or anomaly that could have contributed to this reported occurrence was not observed.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: 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.Separation of the cutting wire securing component and the catheter can occur if the tip of the sphincterotome is over flexed.The instructions for use caution the user: "do not over flex or bow tip beyond 90 degrees, as this may damage or cause cutting wire to break." other factors that can contribute to separation of the cutting wire securing component and the catheter include 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-tomes sphincterotomes are subjected to a visual inspection and functional test to ensure device integrity.The functional test includes bowing the sphincterotome to ensure the distal end responds to handle manipulation.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 or Problem Description
Prior to an endoscopic procedure, the user chose a cook fusion omni-tome pre-loaded sphincterotome.The sphincterotome was broken prior to the procedure and a new one was used.There was no reportable information at this time.The device was received on 28-may-2019 and the evaluation found that the cutting wire securing component was separated from the catheter.This occurred prior to patient contact; there was no impact to the patient.
