Manufacturer Narrative

The reported oad and guide wire were received for analysis.The guide wire was not engaged in the device.A fracture was observed at the proximal solder bond of the guide wire.The spring tip fragment was not returned.Scanning electron microscopy of the fracture face revealed torsional damage.This damage was likely caused from the spinning oad making contact with the guide wire spring tip.The root cause of the guide wire fracture was hypothesized to be user error.The diamondback 360 peripheral orbital atherectomy system instructions for use states, "when moving the crown advancer knob, make sure there is sufficient distance between the guide wire spring tip and the distal end of the shaft (10 cm minimum).If the distance between the shaft tip and the guide wire spring tip is insufficient, the shaft tip may damage the guide wire spring tip and result in dislodgement of the guide wire spring tip.Use contrast injections and fluoroscopy to monitor movement of the shaft tip in relation to the guide wire spring tip." no damage was observed on the oad.A guide wire passed through the oad with no resistance, and the oad functioned as intended when tested.At the conclusion of the device analysis, the reported guide wire fracture was confirmed.The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.The material inspection report for this guide wire lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.(b)(4).

Event Description

During a procedure, a 1.5 solid diamondback peripheral orbital atherectomy device (oad) and viperwire guide wire were selected for use for a mid to distal peroneal lesion.The vessel was approximately two (2) millimeters in diameter.The lesion was treated with five passes on low speed.The oad was removed.When the balloon was placed for angioplasty, it was observed that the guide wire spring tip had fractured.The fragment was approximately two (2) centimeters long.As the fragment was distal and the outflow was good, the physician elected to abandon the fragment and did not attempt to snare it.Additional angioplasty of the lesion was performed.The physician stated the vessels in the lower leg were improved compared to the start of the procedure.The patient was admitted to the hospital following the procedure for a previously planned amputation of the great toe.
