The event unit was returned to applied medical for evaluation.Upon visual inspection, engineering confirmed that there was a tear in the sheath.Based on the condition of the returned unit, it is likely the reported event was caused by an instrument that came into contact with the sheath during the procedure.The probability and criticality of harm resulting from this failure have been evaluated and were found to be at an acceptable level.
