Manufacturer¿s ref.No: (b)(4).The purpose of this mdr submission is to report the investigational finding of the returned device.[conclusion]: the healthcare professional reported that during the procedure, while placing the 2mm x 2cm deltaxsft 10 coil (dlx100202 / 30537003), it was ¿impossible to get it loose.¿ attempt to troubleshoot was made using another detachment control cable and another detachment control box, but this did not resolve the issue.It was reported that with other coils, there were no similar issues.There was no report of any patient adverse event or complication.The complaint device was returned for evaluation and analysis.The investigational finding is documented below.Investigation summary: a non-sterile 2mm x 2cm deltaxsft 10 coil was received contained in a pouch.Visual inspection was performed.The returned device was observed in good, normal condition.The embolic coil was still attached to the resistance heating (rh) coil.Microscopic inspection was performed.The embolic coil was observed to be in good, normal condition.There was no damage noted.The rh coil did not show evidence of being heated, which indicates that the detachment cycle was not initiated or was unsuccessfully initiated as documented in the complaint as ¿impossible to get it loose.¿ functional testing was performed.The resistance of the returned device was measured.No reading was observed.It was then connected to a lab sample detachment control box (dcb) and the system ready light did not illuminate.Electrical continuity was measured from the connector to the rh coil and one of the pins did not show any reading value.A cut was performed to expose the copper wires.Resistance was measured from the area of the cut to the rh coil and no value reading was observed on one of the coper wires.The rh was inspected.No abnormality was observed.A review of manufacturing documentation associated with this lot 30537003 presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection processes related to the reported complaint.There were no nonconformances related to device manufacture or inspection.All product rejected during manufacturing was identified as scrap and properly accounted for.As part of the cerenovus quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.It should be noticed that failure could be caused by multiple factors, however the instructions for use contain the following recommendations: verify that the microcoil delivery system is fully connected, and no faults are indicated on the dcb.If a fault exists, reseat all connections between the dpu, the dcb, and the connecting cable.If a fault persists, replace the connecting cable.If this does not correct the error, replace the dcb.If the microcoil delivery system continues to have a fault, retrieve the microcoil as described in the following section, re sheathing the microcoil system, and replace it with a new microcoil system.The complaint documented that during the procedure, while placing the 2mm x 2cm deltaxsft 10 coil, it was ¿impossible to get it loose.¿ attempt to troubleshoot was made using another detachment control cable and another detachment control box, but this did not resolve the issue.The reported issue of the complaint device failure to detach was confirmed based on the functional evaluation performed on the returned device.The resistance of the device was measured; however, no readings were produced.Additionally, the returned complaint device was connected to the dcb (detachment control box) and the system ready light did not illuminate, electrical resistance readings were taken from the connector and the copper wires to the rh, and it was found that one of the copper wires lost continuity.The likely cause is the loss of electrical continuity, which is likely the reason for the rh coil showing no evidence of having been subjected to heat during the microscopic inspection.Based on the device history record review, there is no indication that the event is related to the device manufacturing process.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended for statistical signals and corrective / preventive action may be triggered at a later time.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.The manufacturer will submit a supplemental report if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.Additional information will be submitted within 30 days of receipt.
