Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other similar incidents from this lot.It is possible that during stent deployment interaction with the heavily tortuous, heavily calcified anatomy and/or the delivery system was slightly pushed distally as the stent was being deployed resulting in the reported stent shortening; however, this could not be confirmed.The investigation determined a conclusive cause for the reported difficulties cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling of the device.
