The device was implanted and not returned to numed.The hemostasis valve tools were not fully inserted in either case, which would cause the stent to catch on the hemostasis valve.This is most likely the cause of the stent migration/dislodgement.This complaint involved two cmcp-1558.Same physician, same hospital, two different patients on the same day.The second report is number 1318694-2017-00018.Device implanted and not returned.

As per the report from distributor - "after unsheathing the stent in the desired location and the inner balloon was inflated, it was determined that the stent had partially slid off the balloon.The doctor was able to partially inflate the outer balloon, deflate, move, and properly expand the remainder of the stent.The end result was perfect placement and the gradient was no longer present.Saline was used during prep.The 14f hemostasis tool provided by numed was used.Physician did not attempt to pull the stent back through the neostasis valve at any time." clarification from bis specialist - sent on 6/22/2017 - "the physician did use the tools provided by numed, however, the physician did not insert the insertion sleeve far enough.".
