Event or Problem Description
|
|
The healthcare professional reported that during an abdominal stent grafting and endovascular aneurysm repair (evar) procedure with the target on the internal iliac artery (iia) and inferior mesentery artery (ima), a carry león microcatheter (utm) was advanced to the target lesion using a ¿cobra-shaped parent catheter.¿ the complaint coil, a 8mm x 35cm deltafill 18 (dlf180835 / 30915606) could not be detached during the embolization of the iia.It was reported that the power distribution had been checked at the beginning of the procedure.When the deltafill coil was reconnected prior to detaching, it was reported that there was no response.After replacing the enpower control cable (ecb00018200 / 30975218) and the detachment control box, the issue continued.Another deltafill coil was used and it was successfully detached.After that, when a 4mm x 12cm galaxy g3 (gly120412 / 30792966) was about to be used for the ima, the same detachment issue also occurred.However, the 4mm x 12cm galaxy g3 coil did not respond to power distribution prior to use, it was not used.It was reported that another coil was used in place of the 4mm x 12cm galaxy g3.It was not known if continuous flush was maintained.There was no report of any negative patient impact.

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 8mm x 35cm deltafill 18 coil was received contained in the decontamination pouch.Visual inspection was performed.No appearance of damages were noted.All components were returned in good condition.Microscopic inspection was performed.The embolic coil component was observed still attached to the resistance heating (rh) coil; the embolic coil is in good condition.The distal outer sheath had not been softened, an indication that the rh coil had not been heated and the detachment process had not been initiated.No appearance of damage was observed at the connection points, wires, or inside the rh coil.The electrical resistance of the 8mm x 35cm deltafill 18 coil was measured with a multimeter; however the device gave no readings.The device history records (dhr) for lot number 30915606 were reviewed and no evidence of deficiencies during the manufacturing process was found.No non-conformances were generated during the manufacturing process.Complaint history for lot number 30915606, found no similar events reported.The issue reported that the 8mm x 35cm deltafill 18 coil had no response prior to detachment was confirmed.The device did not present any physical damage (cuts or severe kinks) to the shaft of the device positioning unit (dpu) to cause electrical issues.Another place for electrical issues would be at either connection point ¿ at the proximal connector where the pins are soldered or at the distal connection near to or inside the rh heater, however, all components were inspected, and no anomalies were observed.It is possible that other factors such as device manipulation, may have caused the electrical failure that led to the failure to detach.As part of cerenovus quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Devices undergo 100% electrical continuity test for finished product prior to pouching and boxing to prevent failure to detach from occurring during the procedure.It should be noted that product failure could be caused by multiple factors.The instructions for use (ifu) does contain the following recommendation: verify that the microcoil delivery system is fully connected and no faults are indicated on the dcb.If a fault exists, reseat all connections between the dpu, the dcb, and the connecting cable.If a fault still persists, replace the connecting cable.If this does not correct the error, replace the dcb.If the microcoil delivery system still continues to have a fault, retrieve the microcoil as described in the following section, re sheathing the microcoil system, and replace with a new microcoil system.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.This is one of 2 products involved with the reported complaint.The associated manufacturer report numbers are: 3008114965-2023-00235 and 3008114965-2023-00236.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.
