Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation evaluation: our evaluation of the product said to be involved confirmed the report.There is wire guide coating damage near the distal end.Approximately 12.4cm to 27.3cm from the distal end is a section of bare core wire.Approximately 11.5cm to 12.4cm from the distal end, the wire guide covering has folded over itself.A section of the coating approximately 14.9cm long is frayed and hanging from the wire guide, and the coating is still attached at approximately 12.4cm from the distal end.Another section of coating approximately 4.9cm long is frayed and hanging from the wire guide, and the coating is still attached at approximately 22.4cm from the distal end.A conversation with production personnel from wire guides was had on 01/20/22.Pictures of the device were exchanged, and production management confirmed device was nonconforming due to coating damage caused during the scoring process in manufacturing.The device history record for the lot number said to be involved was reviewed.A discrepancy or anomaly was not observed with the product that was released for distribution.Investigation conclusion: the coating at the distal end was damaged which was due to the scoring process.This occurred due to operator error.Production management and the department team leads were notified of this occurrence.Additionally, a notification of operator related complaint form was provided to production management to make them aware of an operator related complaint.Prior to distribution, all acrobat¿ calibrated tip wire guides are subjected to a visual inspection to ensure device integrity.A review of the device history record confirmed that the lot said to be involved met all manufacturing requirements prior to shipment.Corrective action: corrective action is not warranted at this time based on the quality engineering risk assessment.Quality assurance will continue to monitor for complaint trends and reassess the risk assessment results as post market feedback continues to become available.
