During an attempt to pass a viperwire advance guide wire through a diamondback 360 coronary orbital atherectomy device (oad), the viperwire could not pass through the oad.The viperwire appeared to stop at the brake area of the oad.No damage was observed on the viperwire or the oad.The oad was exchanged for a second oad, which was used for the procedure with the same viperwire.The oad which did not allow for viperwire passage was returned to csi for analysis which identified the presence of material within the driveshaft.

The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.Following oad analysis, csi performed analysis and investigation related to the production of the device.During this investigation, attempts were made to create the event of foreign particulate in the oad driveshaft but were unsuccessful.A review of manufacturing processes and final functional tests could not identify how the event could have occurred during the manufacturing of the device.Therefore, the cause of the reported event could not be conclusively determined.Csi id: (b)(4).
