Device evaluated by mfr.: a delivery wire, coil and introducer sheath were returned for this complaint.The coil and delivery wire arms were interlocked.The twist lock of the introducer sheath had been opened.The delivery wire was inspected and no anomalies were noted.The coil was inspected and it was found kinked and stretched.Functional inspection was performed and the delivery wire was advanced through the introducer sheath, but it was not possible to continue advancing it because the coil was stuck, due the stretched condition.The coil was pulled out backwards in order to release the main coil.Microscopic inspection of the delivery wire was performed and revealed that the zap tip has a smooth surface.The interlocking arm was inspected and no anomalies was noted.Microscopic inspection of the main coil was performed and revealed that the zap tip has a smooth surface.The interlocking arm was inspected and it was detached.Dimensional inspection of the delivery wire was performed and the measured dimensions were within specification.Dimensional inspection of the main coil was performed and there were missing fiber bundles on the main coil due to coil condition.The remaining measured dimensions were within specification.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.
