Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Per the supera peripheral stent system risk management summary report potentially adverse events of using the device post expiration date include fever, infection, inflammation, and hypersensitivity/allergic reaction.However, in this case there was no reported adverse patient events reported.It should be noted that the supera peripheral stent system instructions for use states: use this device prior to the ¿use by¿ date as specified on the device package label.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to the deviation of the instructions for use as it is likely that the device was inadvertently used after the use by date.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
