Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The coil was received with the pusher coils detached from the pusher.There was no damaged to the returned microcatheter.The investigation found pusher to be kinked near the transition, and the implant to be damaged and stretched.The monofilament profile for both coil and pusher indicated a non-thermal detachment.With the tail visible on the monofilament, this indicated a tensile break.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the damage of the pusher and implant, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces over specification.
