The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy procedure in the right m2 segment of the middle cerebral artery (mca) using a penumbra system jetd reperfusion catheter (jetd) and sheath.During the procedure, the physician made one pass using the jetd.On the second pass, the jetd kinked at the midshaft as the physician pulled it out.The procedure was completed using a new jetd and the same sheath.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Evaluation of the returned jetd confirmed kinks in its proximal shaft.If the jetd is forcefully mishandled at an extreme angle during use, damage such as this may occur.During functional testing, the jetd was able to advance and retract through a demonstration neuron max without issue.Penumbra catheters 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.
