Event or Problem Description

The healthcare professional reported that when the 3.5mm x 9cm orbit galaxy complex xtrasoft coil (640cx3509 / 30498214) and the 3mm x 8cm orbit galaxy complex xtrasoft coil (640cx0308 / 30425579) were removed from their respective hoops, the tip of the coils were protruding from their respective introducers.The physician pulled the coils back into their introducers and was able to advance the coils.However, when the coils were in the aneurysm, both of the coil tips would not make any shape.The coils were not used for the procedure.The coils were replaced and the same size replacement coils were delivered using the same concomitant sl-10® microcatheter (stryker) without any issue to complete the procedure.There was no report of any patient adverse event or complication as a result of the reported device issues.Additional information was received on 28 april 2021.The information indicated that the target aneurysm was of conventional spherical shape and was approximately 4 mm in diameter.The location of the aneurysm was not known, but it was reported that the aneurysm location did not have any impact on the reported issue.There was positioning difficulty in that when the coil was delivered to the target, it did not take its required shape; the coil was sized appropriately but did not take its shape or any shape.The coil was reported to have been withdrawn and repositioned a few times but nothing changed.When the coil was removed from the patient, it was still attached to the delivery system.The coils were the first coils chosen for the procedure; they were replaced.The procedure was successfully completed with cerenovus coils of the same brand and sizes.

Manufacturer¿s ref.No: (b)(4).The purpose of this mdr submission is to include the additional event information received on 01 june 2021.[conclusion]: the healthcare professional reported that when the 3.5mm x 9cm orbit galaxy complex xtrasoft coil (640cx3509 / 30498214) and the 3mm x 8cm orbit galaxy complex xtrasoft coil (640cx0308 / 30425579) were removed from their respective hoops, the tip of the coils were protruding from their respective introducers.The physician pulled the coils back into their introducers and was able to advance the coils.However, when the coils were in the aneurysm, both of the coil tips would not make any shape.The coils were not used for the procedure.The coils were replaced and the same size replacement coils were delivered using the same concomitant sl-10® microcatheter (stryker) without any issue to complete the procedure.There was no report of any patient adverse event or complication as a result of the reported device issues.Additional information was received on 28 april 2021.The information indicated that the target aneurysm was of conventional spherical shape and was approximately 4 mm in diameter.The location of the aneurysm was not known, but it was reported that the aneurysm location did not have any impact on the reported issue.There was positioning difficulty in that when the coil was delivered to the target, it did not take its required shape; the coil was sized appropriately but did not take its shape or any shape.The coil was reported to have been withdrawn and repositioned a few times but nothing changed.When the coil was removed from the patient, it was still attached to the delivery system.The coils were the first coils chosen for the procedure; they were replaced.The procedure was successfully completed with cerenovus coils of the same brand and sizes.On 01 june 2021, additional event information was received indicating that the 3.5mm x 9cm orbit galaxy complex xtrasoft coil is no longer available to be returned for evaluation and analysis.Based on complaint information, the device is no longer available to be returned for analysis.A review of manufacturing documentation associated with this lot (30498214) presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection processes related to the reported complaint.There were no nonconformances related to device manufacture or inspection.All product rejected during manufacturing was identified as scrap and properly accounted for.Product analysis cannot be conducted as the product was not returned for analysis.No determination of causes and possible contributing factors could be made.As such, the investigation will be closed.With the information available and without the product available for analysis, the reported customer complaint could not be confirmed.Assignment of root cause for the event remains speculative and inconclusive, based on the information provided and without the return of the complaint sample; however, it is possible that clinical and procedural factors, including device manipulation / interaction, aneurysm size / vessel characteristics, device selection, and the concomitant microcatheter, may have contributed to the reported issue.Based on the manufacturing documentation review, there is no indication that the event is related to the device manufacturing process.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended for statistical signals and corrective / preventive action may be triggered at a later time.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.This is one of two products involved with the reported complaint.The associated manufacturer report numbers are: 3008114965-2021-00164 and 3008114965-2021-00165.The manufacturer will submit a supplemental report if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.Additional information will be submitted within 30 days of receipt.
