Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluation by mfr.: a synergy ous mr 3.00 x 38mm stent delivery system was returned for analysis.An examination (visual and via scope) of the crimped stent found stent damage.Stent struts in the very proximal region were lifted and pulled distally.The undamaged crimped stent outer diameter was measured and the result was within max crimped stent profile measurement.The balloon cones were reviewed, and no issues were noted.The balloon wings were tightly wrapped and evenly folded and were not subjected to positive pressure.A visual and microscopic examination of the bumper tip showed no signs of tip damage.A visual and tactile examination of the hypotube shaft found multiple kinks along the hypotube shaft.A visual and tactile examination of the outer and mid-shaft section and a visual examination of the inner lumen found no issues along the shaft polymer extrusion.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.
