Event Description
It was reported that the distal filter was unable to be re-sheathed.Two sentinel cerebral protection system devices were attempted to be used during a procedure.The first sentinel cerebral protection system was not used as the guidewire could not be advanced.The second sentinel cerebral protection system was then prepped for use and inserted into the patient.While deploying the distal filter, it moved out of position from the left common carotid artery due to the patient's anatomy being tortuous.Attempts were made to re-sheath the filter for repositioning, and the handle broke.Re-sheathing was unsuccessful.The distal filter was not able to be recaptured.The entire device was retrieved without difficulties or injury to the patient.The procedure proceeded without use of a sentinel cerebral protection system.
 
Manufacturer Narrative
Analysis of the returned unit revealed the distal filter slider (#3) was detached, none of the filters were returned in a deployed condition, and part of the inner member was exposed through the rear handle.Functional tests were performed and articulating sheath was able to flex/relax properly, flushing could only be performed trough front handle flush port, and the proximal filter was able to be deployed and retracted using proximal filter slider (#1); however, distal filter tests could not be performed due to the condition of the returned device.Reported complaints of distal filter failure to capture/retrieve, and handle break were confirmed due to the condition of the returned device; however reported complaints of device failure to advance and distal filter failure to maintain position/reposition could not be confirmed as the procedural/anatomical conditions could not be replicated during testing.In order to look further into the issue, a test guidewire was inserted trough the exposed part of the innermember and, using it as support, the innermember was able to be move forward and backwards making distal filter deployment and retraction possible.Device was also sent for x-ray analysis and it was noted that there were no inner member pieces found inside the detached distal filter slider (#3).
