Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was returned for analysis.The reported premature activation was able to be confirmed.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported/noted difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that inadvertent mishandling while unpackaging the device resulted in the distal sheath to slightly retract from the base of the tip and inadvertently prematurely deploying the stent.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
