Manufacturer Narrative

The barricade coil was received for evaluation.Results revealed the delivery pusher fractured at the zebra mark location as described by the customer.The implant coil was not attached to the distal end of the delivery pusher, the adhesive segment at the detachment zone on the pusher has the appearance of the coil being pulled out.The implant coil was not returned as it was implanted in the patient.Based on the available information and the investigation results the reported complaint was confirmed.The root cause of this complaint cannot be determined; however, it is possible by the condition of the pusher that the coil was stretched and sequentially exposed to a force greater than the tensile strength of the strech resistance thread resulting in fracture of the thread.The fracture of the thread may subsequently lead to the separation of the implant coil from the pusher.Review of the lot history records for the reported lot did not reveal any in-process or lot-specific issue that could account for the observation.No additional complaints against the reported lot have been made for the same issue.
