Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was not returned for analysis.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 as it is likely the device interacted with the anatomy causing the reported failure to advance.The device was then removed and the stent was noted to be dislodged; however, it was found outside of the body on the guide wire.It is likely interaction with the guiding catheter and/or guide wire during removal caused the stent to dislodge.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.The additional xience sierra device is being filed under a separate medwatch report number.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that a 3.5x23mm xience sierra stent delivery system (sds) was not prepped (air aspirated) prior to use.The sds was advanced; however, resistance with the anatomy was felt.Once at the target lesion, an attempt to inflate the sds was made but it was noted that the shaft near the guide wire port was torn.No leak was noted; however, this resulted in the inability to inflate the sds and deploy the stent.The sds with stent were removed.An attempt to advance a 2.5x12mm xience sierra sds was made; however, the sds could not cross due to resistance with the anatomy.The sds was removed and it was noted that the stent had dislodged and was missing.The stent was found outside the body on the gauze used to wipe down the wire after the sds was removed.The procedure was successfully completed with other unspecified stents.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
