As reported, during a right leg angiogram, the hydrophilic coating of a roadrunner uniglide hydrophilic wire guide separated from the device.Access was gained in the left groin for treatment of the right superficial femoral artery through a 90% occlusion.The device was handled with latex gloves and activated by wetting with saline.The device was inserted and removed three times before the hydrophilic coating separation was noted; the device was kept in a bowl of saline between uses.During the third removal, the wire felt "grainy", and part of the coating was flaking off of the device.This wire was not used any further in the procedure, and another of the same wire was used to complete the procedure.A section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body.The patient did not require any additional intervention due to this occurrence.The patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.

Summary of event: as reported, during a right leg angiogram, the hydrophilic coating of a roadrunner uniglide hydrophilic wire guide separated from the device.Access was gained in the left groin for treatment of the right superficial femoral artery through a 90% occlusion.The device was handled with latex gloves and activated by wetting with saline.The device was inserted and removed three times before the hydrophilic coating separation was noted; the device was kept in a bowl of saline between uses.During the third removal, the wire felt "grainy", and part of the coating was flaking off of the device.This wire was not used any further in the procedure, and another of the same wire was used to complete the procedure.A section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body.The patient did not require any additional intervention due to this occurrence.The patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record, instructions for use (ifu), manufacturing instructions, quality control procedures, and specifications were conducted during the investigation.The complainant did not return the complaint device to cook for investigation.A review of the device history record found no non-conformances related to the reported failure mode.A review of complaint history records shows no other related complaints associated with the complaint device lot.The product ifu provided the following information: preparation: 1.Before removing the hydrophilic wire guide from its dispenser, inject sterile heparinized saline solution into the luer lock hub end of the dispenser.2.Inject enough solution to fill the dispenser coil.This will completely cover the wire guide surface and activate the hydrophilic coating.3.Remove the hydrophilic wire guide from its dispenser by gently withdrawing the wire¿s tip.4.If the hydrophilic wire guide cannot easily be removed from its dispenser, inject more heparinized saline solution into the dispenser and then try again.How supplied: upon removal from package, inspect the product to ensure no damage has occurred.Because there were no related non-conformances, adequate inspection activities have been established, there is objective evidence that the device history record was fully executed, and no other related complaints from the lot that have been received from the field, it was concluded that there is no evidence that nonconforming product exists in house or in the field.A review of relevant manufacturing and quality control documents were conducted.Cook has concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The information provided upon review of the complaint file, dhr, dmr, and ifu provide objective evidence to support that the device was manufactured to specification.Cook concluded that a component failure unrelated to the design or manufacturing of the complaint device caused this incident.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation is required.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
