Description
The Optigun Ratchet is a hand-held cement gun for use with Optivac. The Optigun Ratchet is used to deliver bone cement from the Optivac.
Reason
The pin which maintains the knob button, may disconnect and become lost. This may result in a delay of surgery to obtain a new Optigun and detect/retrieve the pin, and may necessitate revision surgery if the pin falls into the surgical site and is not detected.
