Device evaluated by mfr.: the synergy xd mr us 3.00 x 16mm stent delivery system was returned for analysis.A visual and microscopic examination of the crimped stent found that the stent was deformed and mangled on the balloon.As a result of the condition of the stent it was not possible to measure the stent outer diameter (od).As a result a review was performed into the stent crimp od at the time of production and was within maximum crimped stent profile measurement.It was not possible to examine the balloon due to the damaged stent on the balloon.A visual and microscopic examination of the bumper tip showed no signs of damage.A visual and tactile examination of the hypotube found multiple kinks.A visual and microscopic examination of the shaft polymer extrusion found to the extrusion to be bunched along its length.As a result of this damage it was not possible to pass a recommended 0.014 inch guidewire through the stretched and bunched lumen.
