E1 - initial reporter address 1: (b)(6).E1 - initial reporter city: (b)(6).Device evaluated by mfr: the device was returned for evaluation.Visual inspection revealed that a pusher wire, coil, introducer sheath and a valve were returned for this complaint.The coil and pusher wire arms were interlocked within introducer sheath.The twist lock of the introducer sheath had been opened.The coil was inspected, and it was found kinked and stretched.The pusher wire was found kinked.No more damages were found in the returned device.Functional inspection revealed that the pusher 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.It was pulled out backwards to release the main coil.Microscopic inspection of the main coil and pusher wire revealed that the zap tip has a smooth surface.The interlocking arm was inspected, and no anomalies was noted.Dimensional inspection of the pusher wire and main coil revealed the components were within specification.
