Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was returned for analysis.The reported stent dislodgement was confirmed.The reported failure to advance and difficulty to remove could not be replicated in a testing environment as they were related to operational context of the procedure.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no similar incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
