Additional Manufacturer Narrative
From the information provided, there is no indication that there was any device malfunction, nonconformance, or misuse that contributed to the reported event.Hemoptysis is included as a possible complication in the instructions for use (ifu) for the indigo aspiration system.Evaluation of the returned cat12 revealed that the distal tip was damaged.This damage typically occurs if the device is advanced against resistance during use.The root cause of the resistance could not be determined, and this was likely incidental to the reported event.There was no reported malfunction on cat12.Penumbra devices are 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.This report is associated with mfr report number: 1.3005168196-2023-00557.
