Procedure performed - laparotomie = laparotomy. Event description - bij het plaatsen van de alexis xxl werd geconstateerd dat de alexis xxl niet geheel de wondranden bedekt. De functie van wondbescherming gaat dan verloren. De buikwand met vet drkt zich buiten de alexis xxl. Translation ra-qa: when placing the alexis xxl it was discovered that the alexis xxl does not completely cover the wound edges. The functionality of the wound protection then becomes lost/ineffective. The abdominal wall with fat then pushes itself outside the alexis xxl. Additional information was received via email on november 3, 2017 from sr clinical development mgr: "information from applied medical team member october 25, 2017: last week i attended an open gyn case where the alexis o xxl was used. They performed an hysterectomy and as a sampling removed ten glands from all different regions. The midline incision ran from the pubic symphysis around the umbilicus and 2- cm upwards, according to the surgeon an approximately 25 cm incision. The patient was (b)(6) female with a (b)(6). Her larger posture was quite centered around her belly area. Complication: the alexis xxl was unable to cover the wound margins completely. The wound margin popped out on two sides. We advised to loosen the ring by flipping it back two times, this improved the situation but the wound margins were still exposed at the two sides (just a bit less). However, flipping the alexis o back, also resulted in losing a bit of the retraction. In the end, the surgeon wasn't completely satisfied with the exposure and switched to munster retractor. She preferred the [competitor] retractor over the alexis o, however, she appreciated that alexis o was so quick to set up. Information from applied medical team member october 26, 2017: the exposed wound margins (on two sides) with the alexis xxl looked similar to the drawing below" patient status - no patient injury or illness occurred associated with the complaint event type of intervention - n/a.
