Information received as reported through the clinical study sofast, site name 07 - sahlein (sofia aspiration catheter).It was reported that post transcatheter endovascular thrombectomy for treatment of acute ischemic stroke.Post thrombectomy, there were no complications, and the patient tolerated the procedure well.Later the same day, on (b)(6) 2022 a ct scan noted a new small volume left sylvian subarachnoid hemorrhage.As of (b)(6) 2022, it was reported that the patient continued to do well neurologically.No new neurologic events with observes resolution of original deficits.Neurological follow-up every 4 hours was ordered.On (b)(6) 2022, an mri was performed, and it was noted that the hemorrhage had resolved without sequelae.

The medical assessment procedure note review conclusion is as follows: immediately post-performance of the transcatheter endovascular thrombectomy for treatment of acute ischemic stroke, there were no reported complications, specifically, the procedure notes provide evidence that there were no complications reported and the patient tolerated the procedure well.The access sheath was removed and mynx closure device was applied to the arteriotomy site with hemostasis obtained.Peripheral pulses remained intact and there was no hematoma.A sterile dressing was applied the arteriotomy site.Further, the procedure notes indicate that at follow up #1 after thrombectomy pass #1, left internal carotid artery, cranial, ap, lateral, there was no extravasation, intraluminal thrombus or new occlusion.There is recanalization of the left middle cerebral artery with restoration of antegrade flow through the insular, opercular and cortical segments.This finding is consistent with recanalization, tici 3.Later the same day, on (b)(6) 2022a ct scan noted a new small volume left sylvian subarachnoid hemorrhage.As of (b)(6) 2022, it was reported that the patient continued to do well neurologically.No new neurologic events with observes resolution of original deficits.Neurological follow-up every 4 hours was ordered.And on (b)(6) 2022, an mri was performed, and it was noted that the hemorrhage had resolved without sequelae.The procedure notes indicate that there is no evidence of reported study device malfunction which is associated with the reported event compliant.This is further supported by the procedure note postoperative surgical impression findings which indicate that the preintervention, acute occlusion of the m1 segment of the left middle cerebral artery and successful mechanical thrombectomy of the left middle cerebral artery with restoration of antegrade flow through the m2-m4 branches.This finding is consistent with recanalization, tici 3.A visual inspection of the device captured in this file could not be performed as a physical device was not returned for evaluation.Without the return and physical evaluation of the device, the investigation cannot definitively determine if a condition existed that would have caused or contributed to the reported event.Based on a review of the device's risk documentation, the reported event did not indicate there were any potential or new manufacturing, design, quality, or other systemic issues, or non-conformances.The complaint code is monitored through the trending process; corrective action is determined, as needed, through this process.Investigations of historic complaint files with similar complaint category coding are recorded in the complaint handling system; without the ability to perform and analysis of the device, this investigation cannot identify with certainty any potential root causes.A search for non-conformances associated with this part/lot number combination did not reveal any production-related issues relevant to the complaint that occurred during manufacturing of the device.There are no similar complaints based on the complaint category regarding this batch number from the last two years recorded in the complaint system at the time of this investigation.The instructions for use (ifu) identifies intracerebral/intracranial hemorrhage as a potential complication associated with the use of the device.
