(b)(4). The device was received for evaluation. The gripper would properly hold a. 0945" pin in the 2. 4mm hole and a. 1185 inch gage pin in the 3. 0mm hole. Elongation of hole feature was noted. Dents and scratches are visible on the top and bottom surfaces of the gripper indicating previous effective use. Abrasion was also visible on the 3. 0mm holes in the handle and pivot plate. The device showed heavy wear. During functional testing, the device allowed a 3mm guide wire to slip when heavy load was applied to the wire. Manufacturing records of the lot show that the device was manufactured within specification. The device was used for treatment. The probable cause for the elongation of hole feature is likely wear due to normal use. The gripper has a potential field age of approximately 2 years with an unknown number of uses. This mdr was identified during an internal retrospective review to meet reporting requirements and therefore is being filed retrospectively.
