Manufacturer Narrative

A review of the device history record of the product code/lot number combination was conducted with no findings.The actual device was not returned; therefore, an evaluation of the actual device was unable to be conducted.Since the sample was not available for evaluation, the complaint could not be confirmed.The exact root cause was unable to be determined.The likely cause was determined to be damage sustained to the sheath/locator assembly during device insertion.The device history record (dhr) review determined that the device was in a conforming state when released from terumo control.There is no indication that any manufacturing, design, or quality system issues may have led to this event.Currently, no action is recommended since this risk evaluation is within the predetermined limits in the failure mode and effects analysis (fmea)/hazard based risk table (hbrt).
