Additional Manufacturer Narrative
A search for non-conformances associated with the reported part/lot number combination did not reveal any production-related issues relevant to the complaint that occurred during manufacturing of the device.The device was not returned to the manufacturer for analysis; therefore, the alleged product issue cannot be confirmed.If the device or additional information is received, mvi inc.Will issue a supplemental report.The instructions for use (ifu) identifies premature or difficult coil detachment as potential complications associated with use of the device.
 
Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during an embolization procedure, the coil unintentionally detached from the pusher when attempted to deploy out of the microcatheter.The coil was removed from the patient and replaced tdo successfully complete the case.There was no report of harm or injury to the patient.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The pusher was the only component received for evaluation.The investigation of the returned coil system found the implant to be separated from the pusher.No indication using a detachment controller was found on the pusher's heater coil.The investigation found the pusher's monofilament with a stretched tail/tensile break shape at the tip which is consistent with the device experiencing excessive force that exceeded the strength of the monofilament causing the implant to separate from the pusher.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the damage, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces over specification.
