As reported, before insertion of the device for a run off procedure, "extra sheath material" was noted at the end of a flexor high-flex ansel guiding sheath.Access was obtained via the groin to target the distal portion of the opposite leg.The user attempted to place the sheath over a cook 0.035-inch guide wire; however, resistance was encountered before insertion of the device into the patient.The sheath was removed and extra sheath material was noted at the end of the sheath, which never actually entered the patient.The procedure was successfully completed with another device of the same type.As reported, the patient did not experience any adverse effects or require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.

Corrected information: b1, h1: upon return and evaluation of the device, the sheath tip was bunched up; however, no extra material was noted.Per a search of risk documentation and previous complaint data, there is no evidence to suggest that this device failure would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or a serious injury if the failure were to recur.Furthermore, there is no evidence that the device caused or contributed to a serious injury, as no life-threatening or permanently impairing injury was alleged, nor was intervention taken as a result of the device failure which would be required to prevent permanent impairment or damage to the patient.As such, the event is not reportable under fda 21 cfr part 803 as it does not meet the criteria for a death, serious injury, or reportable product malfunction.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
