Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device is not being returned to intact vascular for evaluation as it remains implanted in the patient.Procedure notes and angiogram imaging received from the clinical site from the (b)(6) 2021 patient procedure indicated the vessel measured by ivus (rvd 5mm - 5.5mm), in conjunction with the ballooning of the vessel, resulted in the 4f size tack endovascular system that was chosen for use to be undersized for the size of the vessel after atherectomy.

Event or Problem Description

|
The reporter stated "the device was originally implanted (b)(6) 2021 and today they noticed during the angiogram that the devices have moved.Prior to an intervention on another vessel altogether." "it was noticed that the devices had moved between this procedure and the initial procedure performed on the (b)(6) 2021." "it is important to note that the movement of these devices were noticed prior to any additional international measures being taken.Before any wires reached the stent themselves.Something happened in between the procedures and caused the devices to move.It was noted via angiogram during the initial run off before any wires went down to the area." four tack endovascular devices (tacks) were implanted on (b)(6) 2021 for treatment of a significant spiral dissection in the tibial peroneal trunk as part of purcutaneous atherectomy procedure for a non-healing ulcer of lower extremity.Post-procedure angiograms on (b)(6) 2021 showed the four tacks implanted properly at the desired location in the vessel.On a subsequent angiogram from (b)(6) 2021, the three most distal tacks were seen in altered positions from their original placement.Three tacks appear to have moved proximal to their original implaintation sites.If any additional information is received that has an impact on what is currently being reported, a 3500a supplemental report will be submitted.
