(b)(4).The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Reportedly, the device was stabilized at an angle below 45 degrees.It should be noted that the perclose proglide instructions for use, states: position the device at a 45-degree angle.Deploy the foot by lifting the lever (marked #1) on the top of the handle.It is unknown if the reported violation of the ifu contributed to the reported difficulties.The reported difficulties and subsequent treatment appear to be related to an interaction of the device with patient anatomy or inability to maintain position/stability of the device during deployment due to circumstances of the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
