Evaluation of the returned benchmark confirmed coil winds were exposed coming out of the hub.Evaluation revealed that a coil wind may have been exposed within the hub.Manipulation of a device within the benchmark may cause the exposed coil wind to start unraveling.The root cause of the coil wind becoming exposed could not be determined.Penumbra devices are visually inspected during in-process inspection and during quality inspection after manufacturing.The manufacturing records for this lot were reviewed and did not reveal any outstanding discrepancies, design, or quality concerns.H3 other text : placeholder.
