Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6 (device codes): the problem code 1069 captures the reportable event of cutting wire broken.Block h10: visual examination of the returned device revealed that the cutting wire was broken, bent and blackened.There was no other issue noted.The complaint was consistent with the reported event of cutting wire broke.It is most likely that a peak of voltage could have caused the failures noted or if the device was not in contact with the tissue when it was energized.Therefore, the most probable cause of this complaint is adverse event related to procedure since the adverse event occurred during the procedure and the device had no influence on event.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications at the time of release to distribution.A labeling review was performed and from the information available, this device was used per the directions for use (dfu)/product label.
