H3: summary attached - updated.H3: device evaluated by mfg ¿updated.H4: manufacturing date ¿ added.D4: expiration date - added.Due to the automated mes system there are controls in the manufacturing process to ensure the product met specifications upon release.Visual/microscopic inspection: the coil delivery wire was found to be kinked/bent.The main coil was found to be detached/separated and not returned.The detachment seems to be mechanical.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 ' coil jammed' and ' main coil stretched' could not be confirmed during the analysis as the coil was not returned.Although the reported 'main coil migration' could not be analyzed, this defect is being confirmed based on the event description.The device failed to meet specifications when received for complaint investigation based on the analyzed anomalies noted to the device.Additional information provided by the customer indicated that the device was confirmed to be in good condition during preparation/prior to use on the patient and was prepared as per the dfu, continuous flush was set up and maintained throughout the clinical procedure, an sl-10 microcatheter was used in the procedure in conjunction with the subject device, the patient's anatomy was moderately tortuous, and it was verified under fluoroscopy that the coil was successfully detached.During analysis, the coil delivery wire was found to be kinked/bent and the main coil had been detached/separated and was not returned.Based on visual inspection of the delivery wire, the detachment appeared to be mechanical in nature.Since the main coil was not returned, the as reported (ar) ' coil jammed' and ' main coil stretched' were not confirmed.In the case of this complaint, it is possible that the main coil did not fully detach with the inzone and therefore it was observed to have migrated with the sl-10 when the microcatheter was retracted.It is likely that the main coil prematurely detached from the delivery wire due to force applied to retract the wire when the coil was stuck at the tip of the microcatheter.An assignable cause of procedural factors will be assigned to the as analyzed (aa) ' main coil prematurely detached/separated during use' and ar ' main coil migration' since these issues are associated with a product that met stryker design and manufacturing specifications and was used in accordance with the dfu, but performance was limited due to procedural and/or anatomical factors during use.An assignable cause of handling damage will be assigned to the aa 'coil delivery wire kinked/bent' since this damage is associated with handling of the device during the clinical procedure.
