H10: manufacturing review: the lot history records of this lot were reviewed with special attention to the manufacturing and inspection of this product and the product was found to have met the specification prior to shipment.Based on the information available it is not reasonably suggested that a manufacturing process may have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Investigation summary: the stent was returned for evaluation.The returned device was partially deployed and the sheath was fractured distal to the swivel nut.A 0.035' guidewire was used.Additionally the system should be straightened prior to deployment and the proximal end of the stent graft should be placed in a straight section of the lumen prior to deployment.Based on the provided information the investigation is closed with a confirmation for partial deployment and sheath fracture.A definite root cause for the reported event could not be determined.Labeling review: in reviewing the relevant labeling, it was found that the instructions for use sufficiently address the potential risks.The instruction for use state: 'if unusual resistance or high deployment force is encountered during stent graft deployment, abort the procedure, remove the delivery system and use an alternative device.' regarding preparation of the device the instruction for use state that 'prior to loading the endovascular system over a guide wire, both ports must be flushed with sterile saline (.).Flushing these lumens will also facilitate stent graft deployment.' regarding the anatomy of the placement site the instruction for use state: 'prior to stent graft deployment (.), ensure that the proximal (inflow) stent graft end is positioned in a straight section of the lumen to reduce the risk of increased deployment forces and possible endovascular system failure.' regarding accessories the instruction for use states: 'prepare a stiff 0.035" guidewire per its instructions for use and advance the guidewire under fluoroscopy to the target location.The use of an appropriately sized introducer sheath is recommended.'; the packaging pictograms indicate an introducer size of 9f and a 0.035" guidewire.H10: d4 (expiry date: 01/2025), g3, h6 (device).H11: h6 (method, result).H11:section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
