The healthcare professional reported that during an endovascular embolization procedure, that the complaint coil, a 10mm x 30cm orbit galaxy complex frame coil (640cr1030 / 30683888) became detached in the concomitant microcatheter, a 150cm x 5cm prowler select plus microcatheter (606s255x / 30723358).The full assembly was removed along with the microcatheter.It was reported that fragments were generated but they were removed easily without intervention.There was no procedure delay due to the reported issue.The procedure was successfully completed.There was no negative patient impact.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|

Manufacturer¿s ref.No: (b)(4).The purpose of this mdr submission is to report the investigation finding of the returned device.The complaint device was returned for evaluation and analysis.The investigation finding is documented below.Investigation summary: a non-sterile 10mm x 30cm orbit galaxy complex frame coil was received contained in the decontamination pouch.Visual inspection was performed.Several kinks were observed along the hypo-tube of the device.The embolic coil was already detached from the unit.The gripper was inspected under magnification, and it was found in a twisted condition, no elongations were found on the distal end.The concomitant microcatheter was inspected, and the embolic coil was found detached inside.Microscopic inspection revealed a kink on the embolic coil.The delivery system and introducer component were measured to determine if the fragments reported belong to the orbit galaxy device, and they were confirmed to be within specifications; no evidence of separated fragments was observed.A review of manufacturing documentation associated with this lot (30683888) presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection processes related to the reported complaint.There were no nonconformances related to device manufacture or inspection.The issue reported regarding the embolic coil being prematurely detached in the microcatheter was confirmed based on the findings mentioned above.The damages observed on the returned components were not originally reported in the complaint; however, such damages suggest that the system could have been advanced against resistance.According to the risk documentation, premature detachment of the embolic coil assembly from the delivery system is a potential issue that can occur during embolic coil placement due to the following potential causes: loss of one to one response between the coil and the delivery tube.Manipulation of the system against resistance.Coil entanglement.As part of the cerenovus quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Devices undergo 100% inspection at final assembly for embolic coil and delivery unit condition.It should be noted that product failure is multifactorial.The instructions for use (ifu) contains the following caution: do not fasten the rhv valve too tightly around the introducer sheath since excessive pressure may cause damage to the introducer sheath and/or the microcoil as it is advanced into the infusion microcatheter.Additionally, if the introducer tip and microcatheter hub are misaligned, damage may occur to the microcoil as it passes through this transition.Based on the manufacturing documentation review, there is no indication that the event is related to the device manufacturing process.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended for statistical signals and corrective/preventive action may be triggered at a later time.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.The manufacturer will submit a supplemental report if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.Additional information will be submitted within 30 days of receipt.
