Manufacturer Narrative
Manufacturing review: the lot number has been provided and the lot device history records have been reviewed.The lot met all release criteria.There was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event.This is the only complaint reported for this lot number and issue to date.Investigation summary: the device was not returned for evaluation.Images and medical records were not provided for review.Therefore, the investigation is inconclusive for the alleged torn material as no objective evidence has been provided to confirm any alleged deficiency with the device.The definitive root cause could not be determined based upon available information.It is unknown whether procedural issues contributed to the event.Labeling review: the current instructions for use (ifu) states: precautions when removing the external spiral support (beading) of the graft, the beading must be removed slowly and at a 90° angle to the graft.Rapid unwinding and /or removal at less than a 90° angle may result in graft damage.Do not use surgical blades or sharp, pointed instruments to remove the beading as this may damage the graft wall.If damage occurs, that segment of the graft should not be used.
