Block h6 (device codes): device code a0501captures the reportable event of internal bolster detached.Block h10: the returned endovive low profile replacement button was analyzed.Upon visual assessment, it was observed that the button dome contains remnants of use.Microscope inspection observed that the button dome was ruptured by rod.The initial reported event of internal bolster was not confirmed.Based on the condition of the returned device, engineers determined that the problem observed could be due to the manipulation, technique used, or patients' anatomical conditions.An excess of force could have been applied resulting in the button dome being ruptured.Boston scientific has determined the most probable cause of this complaint is adverse event related to procedure.It is most likely that the adverse event occurred during the procedure and the device had no influence on event which led to the reported event.
