Manufacturer Narrative
|
Device evaluated by mfr.: an express ld was returned for analysis.The recommended introducer sheath size for this express ld device is a 6fr sheath.The investigator was unable to insert the device into the sheath as the stent was damaged and was already moved on the balloon and more interaction could damage the device further.A visual examination of the returned device confirmed that the balloon was tightly folded and had not been subjected to positive pressure.No issues were noted with the balloon material.The stent of the device had moved approximately to a position of 6mm proximal of the distal markerband on the device.The first two rows of the distal stent struts were found to be lifted/damaged.No issues were noted with the tip of the device.No other issues were identified with the returned device during analysis.
