Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Combination product: yes.Neither the complaint instrument nor the angiographic material was returned for analysis.Therefore, no technical investigation on the subject could be performed.The product release documentation was reviewed to establish whether a deviation from the manufacturing process could be the cause for the reported event.Review of the product release documentation confirmed that the instrument was manufactured according to specifications and passed all in process and final inspections.During final inspection, every stent system undergoes visual inspection to ensure correct stent embedding and homogeneous crimping of the stent.Based on the conducted investigations of the device being subject to this complaint, no material or manufacturing related root cause was determined.The extension catheter used in the intervention is compatible with the complaint instrument.However, when using an extension catheter, it should be considered that inside the guiding catheter more edges are present and the risk to be caught on one of the edges is increased.
