Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that during deployment interaction with the anatomy and/or other devices resulted in a build-up of tension within the shaft lumens of the delivery system; thus resulting in a spring like release of the stent resulting in the reported premature activation and the reported malposition of device (stent jumped forward).There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.D9, h3 - it was initially reported that the device would be returned for analysis.Subsequent information revealed that the device was discarded and is not available for evaluation.
