Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The investigation of the returned coil system confirmed the implant was detached from the pusher.The implant was not returned for evaluation.The pusher was received damaged at the distal end with no indication of activation using a detachment controller on the heater coil.The pusher's monofilament profiles a tensile break shape indicating excessive force was applied to the monofilament during retraction.Due to the separation of the implant, replication testing could not be performed to determine the cause of the advancement issue.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the damage, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing excessive forces.
