Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation evaluation: a product evaluation was not performed in response to this report because the product said to be involved was not provided to cook for evaluation.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: we could not conduct a complete investigation because the product said to be involved was not returned for evaluation.A definitive cause for the reported observation could not be determined.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-tome pre-loaded 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: a review of the complaint history was conducted.The likelihood of occurrence is considered rare.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
During an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp) procedure, the physician used a cook fusion omni-tome pre-loaded sphincterotome.The cutting wire on the sphincterotome broke during the procedure.There was no reportable information at this time.The following was received on 28-jan-2020: the cutting wire securing component [anchor] separated from the catheter.A section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.According to the initial reporter, the patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.
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 proximal end of the cutting wire has also migrated towards the proximal end of the device revealing a long portion of exposed cutting wire.The exposed cutting wire is twisted, therefore an accurate measurement of the total length is not possible.A section of the cutting wire securing component has broken and detached from the device.The broken section is estimated to be 3mm in length and 0.5mm in diameter.The broken section was not included in the return.The cannula located at the proximal end of the cutting wire has also moved.The cutting wire exhibits slight evidence of a cautery application (blackening of the cutting wire was noted).The breakthrough channel has also been utilized completely and liquid was observed inside of the catheter.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 use conditions could not be duplicated in the laboratory setting.Due to a variety of clinical conditions such as patient anatomy, endoscope position or progression of disease state, we could not reproduce the actual conditions of product usage during our laboratory analysis.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 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.Corrective action: a review of the complaint history was conducted.The likelihood of occurrence is considered rare.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
During an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp) procedure, the physician used a cook fusion omni-tome pre-loaded sphincterotome.The cutting wire on the sphincterotome broke during the procedure.There was no reportable information at this time.The following was received on (b)(6) 2020: the cutting wire securing component [anchor] separated from the catheter.Our evaluation of the returned device determined a section of the cutting wire securing component is missing and was not included in the return of the device.This information was communicated to the user facility and the location of the missing section is unknown.The initial reporter stated that a section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body; however the location of the missing section detected during our laboratory evaluation is unknown.The patient did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.According to the initial reporter, the patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.
