Please note that the following section was incorrectly reported on the initial mfr report and is being corrected on this follow-up #01 mfr report: 3005168196-2020-01526 1.Section e.Box 1.Initial reporter name and address please note that this complaint was submitted to the fda by the user facility with the following reference number: 0500690000-2020-8016 the following sections are being updated based on additional information included in the user facility report submitted to the fda: 1.Section b.Box 5.Describe event or problem 2.Section e.Box 4.Initial reporter also sent report to fda 3.Section g.Box 3.Report source results: the pet lock was intact on the proximal end of the pusher assembly.The pusher assembly mid-joint was retracted through the introducer sheath friction lock.The embolization coil was undamaged and intact with the pusher assembly.Conclusions: evaluation of the returned smart coil revealed that the pusher assembly mid-joint was retracted through the introducer sheath friction lock.If this occurs, resistance may be experienced during advancement.During functional testing, the smart coil was unable to be advanced from its returned position within the introducer sheath; therefore, the introducer sheath was removed distally, and the smart coil was re-sheathed properly.The smart coil was then advanced through its introducer sheath and a demonstration microcatheter without an issue.The introducer sheath was likely the reported microcatheter mentioned in the reported complaint.Penumbra coils are inspected during in-process inspection and during quality inspection after manufacturing.The manufacturing records for this lot were reviewed and did not reveal any outstanding discrepancies, design, or quality concerns.H3 other text : placeholder.
