- Reason
- IFU updated: The warning section of the IFU for both the OE-A63 distal end cap and ED34-i10T2 duodenoscope has been updated to notify users of the associated risks with the distal end cap (OE-A63) unexpectedly becoming detached during a procedure and updated to notify users of what immediate actions should be taken in case the event occurs. This can result in unforseen events such as mucosal injury, lacerations, or bleeding of the patient. Detachment of the distal end cap (OE-A63) into the oral cavity of the patient may also result in aspiration
