MAUDE data represents reports of adverse events involving medical devices. This maude entry was filed from a company representative report with the FDA on 2017-06-09 for NEOPROBE NPB09S manufactured by Devicor Medical Products, Inc..
[77240037]
The neoprobe npb09s is a reusable gamma detection probe that is cleaned and disinfected and/or sterilized between uses. Based on review of the dhr, the device was manufactured in may 2015, and released for commercial use having met all acceptance tests and calibration criteria. The device was received at the site of manufacture, nortech, on may 17, 2017. The device is currently in the evaluation process. A supplemental report will be submitted once the evaluation is complete. While there was no adverse effect during this event, due to the potential for serious injury (potential infection due to cross-contaminations; tip falling off during procedure as a result of deficient epoxy/loose probe tip) if malfunction were to reoccur, pursuant to 21 cfr 803, we are deeming this a reportable event and thus submitting this medwatch report.
Patient Sequence No: 1, Text Type: N, H10
[77240038]
