Manufacturing review: as the lot number was not provided a device history review (dhr) could not be performed.Investigation summary: the sample was not returned for evaluation.Therefore, the result of the investigation is inconclusive for the reported stent dislodgment issue.The root cause for the reported stent dislodgment issue could not be determined based upon the available information received from the field communications.Labeling review: the instructions for use for the lifestream product was reviewed and contains the following information relevant to the reported event: indication for use: the lifestream balloon expandable vascular covered stent is indicated for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in common and external iliac arteries.Warnings: ¿ should excessive resistance be felt at any time during the insertion process, do not force passage.Precautions: ¿ the device should only be used by physicians who are trained in endovascular procedures and are familiar with the complications, side effects and hazards of peripheral vascular interventions.¿ anatomical variances may complicate the procedure; use caution when advancing the endovascular system through tortuous or difficult anatomy.¿ prior to device use, refer to the covered stent sizing table on the label and read the instructions for use.¿ crossing the implant with catheters or other adjunct devices can result in covered stent dislodgement or damage.Directions for use: site access and preparation: 1.Using standard techniques access the artery and place an introducer sheath or guiding catheter of appropriate inner diameter and a 0.035" (0.89 mm) guidewire across the target lesion.2.Perform diagnostic angiography to confirm site of implantation and measure the reference vessel diameter and lesion length.Covered stent size selection.3.Select a covered stent diameter that is approximately 5%-20% larger than the largest reference vessel diameter at the proximal or distal target site.Refer to the sizing table on the packaging label for appropriate selection of the covered stent diameter and length.Endovascular system preparation.4.Carefully remove the selected device from the package.5.Inspect the covered stent for adherence to the balloon and centered placement in relation to the balloon marker bands.If the covered stent is not centered and/or does not firmly adhere to the balloon, do not use.Introduction of the endovascular system and placement of the covered stent 13.Advance the endovascular system over the guidewire into the introducer sheath.H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
