Based on the results of the dhr review, there is no indication that the device, labeling or packaging failed to meet its specifications when released.The subject device is not available; therefore, visual and functional testing cannot be performed.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.Based upon medical review, the harm observed in the complaint is anticipated in nature as per the device risk assessment.As per the additional information the device was prepared for use as per the directions for use, no damage noted to the packaging prior to opening the packaging, and device confirmed to be in good condition during preparation/prior to use on the patient.As a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted with the directions for use, product labeling and/or risk documentation files, an assignable cause of patient-anticipated procedural complication will be assigned to the as reported patient intracranial hemorrhage and patient vessel perforation.
