Additional information: (udi), evaluation summary: post market vigilance (pmv) led an evaluation of one device. One jaw of the device was broken at the fulcrum. Records from each manufacturing lot are thoroughly reviewed to ensure that products are released meeting all quality release specifications at the time of manufacture. The root cause of the observed damage was misuse of the product which caused or contributed to the reported condition. Replication of the reported condition may occur when the device is exposed to a side force (leverage) that consequently breaks one side of the jaws. Another possibility is when the device is activated with too much force to the jaws and is used in a twisting motion resulting in breakage. If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
