Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the anterior communicating artery (acom) using penumbra smart coils (smart coils) and a non-penumbra microcatheter.During the procedure, a smart coil would not advance at all within its introducer sheath after multiple attempts were made.Therefore, the smart coil was removed.The procedure was completed using a new smart coil and the same microcatheter.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Evaluation of the returned smart coil revealed that the pusher assembly mid-joint was retracted through the introducer sheath friction lock.If this occurs, resistance may be experienced during advancement.During functional testing, resistance was encountered while attempting to advance the pusher assembly mid-joint through the introducer sheath friction lock, and the smart coil could not be advanced at all.Further evaluation revealed pusher assembly kinks.This damage was likely incidental to the reported complaint.Penumbra coils are visually 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.
