Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the basilar artery using penumbra smart coils (smart coil), penumbra smart coil detachment handles (handle), a non-penumbra microcatheter, a 5f diagnostic catheter, and a guidewire.During the procedure, the physician advanced a smart coil to the target vessel and attempted to detach it using a handle; however, the smart coil failed to detach.Therefore, the smart coil was removed.Subsequently, the same issue occurred with eight other smart coils.It was reported that attempts were made to detach the smart coils with three different handles.The procedure was completed using new smart coils.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Evaluation of the returned smart coil could not confirm the reported complaint.Evaluation revealed that the pet lock was separated, and the embolization coil was detached from the pusher assembly and was not returned for evaluation.Based on the return condition, the root cause of the detachment issue during the procedure could not be determined.Further evaluation revealed pusher assembly kinks.This damage was likely incidental to the complaint.Please note that the following section is being updated based on additional information provided by a penumbra sales representative on 27-jan-2022: 1.Section b.Box 5.Describe event or problem please note that the following sections were incorrectly reported on the initial mfr report and are being corrected on this follow-up #01 mfr report:3005168196-2021-02393.1.Section d.Box 4.Lot number, catalog number, expiration date, unique identifier 2.Section h.Box 4.Device manufacture date this report is associated with mfr report numbers: 1.3005168196-2021-02388, 2.3005168196-2021-02389, 3.3005168196-2021-02390, 4.3005168196-2021-02391, 5.3005168196-2021-02392, 6.3005168196-2021-02394, 7.3005168196-2021-02396, 8.3005168196-2021-02398, 9.3005168196-2021-02399, 10.3005168196-2021-02401, 11.3005168196-2021-02402 h3 other text : placeholder.
