Event or Problem Description
A health care provider reported via manufacturer representative that the blade was connected to the m5 and it wasn¿t cutting when he tried to use it.When the hcp took it out from the patient, the blade was vibrating vigorously.He tried to fix it on again, but it was still vibrating vigorously.Another piece of the blade was opened, but the blade wasn¿t cutting as well.So, the hcp changed the handpiece to m4, and it still wasn¿t cutting as well.He decided to change to another console, after which, the procedure proceeded smoothly.There was no patient injury.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product analysis visually, both the inner shaft and outer tube were bent which would have caused the vibration.The bends were just distal to the assembly¿s hubs which is an indication of bending forces.The tip was in good condition.When viewed under magnification, there was deformation and indentations of the outer hub locking area consistent with aggressive use.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
