It was reported after a successful clinical trial procedure in the left internal carotid artery-clinoid (c5 segment) to treat a fusiform intracranial aneurysm measuring 6.2mm, the patient had a minimal transient headache on the same day.No diagnostic tests, intervention, treatment or hospitalization were done due to headache and it was reported as recovering/resolving.The patient also had vision impairment, 1 day post procedure.This presented as morning visual changes in the left eye and seeing shadows when looking at letters but not images.No diagnostic tests, intervention, treatment or hospitalization were done due to the vision changes and it was reported as recovering/resolving.The site reported the headache as probably related and the visual impairment as causally related to the subject flow diverter.

The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications because the product was not returned.Due to the automated manufacturing execution system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.It was reported that the patient suffered minimal transient headache.Post stent headache.The implanted stent covered the ophthalmic artery, and some vision impairment was noted.Vision change on left eye, seeing "shadows" when looking at letters but not images.Started in the morning.No change to vision in right eye.Issue is resolving.As a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted within the dfu, product labeling and/or risk documentation files, an assignable cause of anticipated procedural complication will be assigned to this complaint.

F10 / h6 health effect - clinical code - corrected (visual impairment - removed and headache - added).Due to the automated mes system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.The subject device is not available; therefore, functional testing as well as visual testing cannot be performed.The reported event is covered in the device directions for use (dfu).As well, the risk of the reported event is documented in the risk documentation and there are current controls to mitigate the risk of the as reported event.The reported complaint could not be confirmed, and it could not be definitively determined if the device failed to meet specifications because the product was not returned.It was reported that the patient suffered minimal transient headache.Post stent headache.The implanted stent covered the ophthalmic artery, and some vision impairment was noted.Vision change on left eye, seeing "shadows" when lookin at letters but not images.Started in the morning.No change to vision in right eye.Issue is resolving.Additional information received on 11-apr-2022; the imr (designated cec member) has assessed ' headache' as possibly related to the study device and the imr (designated cec member) has assessed 'vision impairment' as not related to the study device".As a product related root cause does not apply and the issue is due to a known physiological effect of the procedure and/or patient condition noted within the dfu, product labeling and/or risk documentation files, an assignable cause of anticipated procedural complication will be assigned to the as reported 'patient headache non-serious' in this complaint.The manufacturer has reviewed all information and determined this event no longer meets the requirement of the reportable event for the device in question.
