Patient allegedly received the celect platinum filter via the right internal jugular vein due to deep vein thrombosis (dvt) and pulmonary embolism (pe) followed by successful percutaneous filter retrieval (b)(6) 2022.Patient is alleging device migration and tilt, vena cava perforation, pain and suffering.Patient notes and further alleges experiencing abdominal pain while bending forward and anxiety.Per the successful ivc filter retrieval: "patient presents for ivc filter retrieval.Of note, filter is malpositioned with medial tilt and suprarenal location on prior ct"."this demonstrated a patent vena cava with good flow.No filling defect within the ivc filter to suggest thrombus.However, the ivc filter was noted to be suprarenal in position with medial tilting of the apical hook".".Multiple attempts were made to grasp the hook on the filter without success given the medially deviated position of the hook".".The bentson guidewire was advanced through this catheter, thus forming a loop around the ivc filter after removal of the catheter.The distal end of this loop was grasped with the snare device and the filter was then over-sheathed and then removed along with the sheath.The removed filter was inspected and found to be fully intact"."digital subtraction venography was performed, demonstrating a normal appearing ivc".

Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unavailable, or unchanged.Additional information: a2, a4, b1, b5, b6, b7, d1, d4, d6b, g4, h4, h6.G4 (510k): k211875.Investigation: investigation is reopened due to additional information provided.The reported allegations have been further investigated based on the information provided to date.The following allegations have been investigated: vena cava (vc) perforation, migration, tilt, anxiety, abdominal pain.Filter interacts with ivc wall, e.G.Penetration/perforation/embedment.This may be either symptomatic or asymptomatic.Potential causes may include improper deployment; and (or) excessive force or manipulations near an in-situ filter (e.G., a surgical or endovascular procedure in the vicinity of a filter).Potential adverse events that may occur include, but are not limited to, the following: vascular trauma, vena cava perforation, vena cava penetration.Filter or filter fragment migration and (or) embolization (e.G., movement to the heart or lungs) has been reported.Filter or filter fragment movement has occurred in both the cranial and caudal direction and may be either symptomatic or asymptomatic.Potential causes may include filter placement in ivcs with diameters smaller or larger than those specified in these instructions for use; improper deployment; deployment into thrombus; dislodgement due to large thrombus burdens; and (or) excessive force or manipulations near an in situ filter (e.G., a surgical or endovascular procedure in the vicinity of a filter).Potential adverse events that may occur include, but are not limited to, the following: filter migration, trauma to adjacent structures.Filter tilt has been reported.Potential causes may include filter placement in ivcs with diameters larger than those specified in these instructions for use; improper deployment; manipulations near an implanted filter (e.G., a surgical or endovascular procedure in the vicinity of a filter); and (or) a failed retrieval attempt.Excessive filter tilt may contribute to difficult or failed retrieval; vena cava wall penetration/perforation; and (or) result in loss of filter efficiency.Potential adverse events that may occur include, but are not limited to, the following: unacceptable filter tilt.Unknown if the reported anxiety and abdominal pain are directly related to the filter and unable to identify a corresponding failure mode at this point in time.20 devices in lot.No other complaints have been reported against the lot.The associated work order was reviewed.No related/relevant notes were documented.The device is manufactured and inspected according to specifications.No evidence to suggest that this device was not manufactured according to specifications and nothing indicates that the filter did not perform as intended, e.G.Intended for the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism (pe) via placement in the vena cava.Cook will reopen its investigation if further information is received warranting supplementation in accordance with 21 c.F.R.803.56.This report includes information known at this time.A follow-up report will be submitted should additional relevant information become available.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
