H4 manufacturing date ¿ added d4 expiration date - added based on the results of the dhr (device history record) review, there is no indication that the device, labeling or packaging failed to meet its specifications when released.The subject device was not available; therefore, a visual inspection as well as a functional evaluation could not be performed.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.The device was not returned as it was implanted.It cannot be confirmed if the device met specification, as the device was not returned.It was reported that the proximal stent did not open and get through it again, medical intervention was required to prevent permanent impairment, by deploying an evo stent to expand the proximal end of the stent to oppose the vessel wall.The patient experiencing some word finding difficulties post operatively, possibly a small embolic stroke as per the physician.The device was not returned for analysis as it had been implanted, therefore analysis was unable to be performed on the device.Based on the stent design and material properties, it is intended that the deployed stent will expand to its intended size, this can however be compromised if damage is sustained to the stent at any stage during use, as the stent was not returned it cannot be determined if the stent sustained any damage, therefore an assignable cause of undeterminable will be assigned to the reported ¿stent failed/unable to open¿.The reportable ¿patient neurological deficit¿ and ¿patient stroke¿ are listed in the atlas stent dfu as anticipated outcomes of these types of procedures.It cannot be determined from the available information if the failure of the proximal end of the atlas stent to open may have caused or contributed to the patient stroke or neurological deficit, therefore an assignable cause of anticipated procedural complication, will be assigned to the reported ¿patient neurological deficit¿ and ¿patient stroke¿.
