H3: the concerto implant coil was returned without the introducer sheath.The actuator interface was found to be not attached to the coupler tube.There appeared to be evidence of mechanical detachment using an instant detacher at this location.The break indicator was found to be intact.The coin was found still against the lumen stop with what appeared to be blood underneath the outer jacket.The shield coil was found intact with the implant coil still attached.The implant coil was found stretched and damaged with the polypropylene filament intact.No other anomalies were observed.The distal outer jacket was removed, and a manual detachment was then attempted by retracting the release wire and the release wire was successfully detached.The coin was found to be damaged.Based on the analysis performed, the concerto coil was confirmed to have non-detachment as the pushwire was returned with the implant coil still attached.However, the implant coil was successfully detached manually during testing.The likely cause for the non-detachment is the damaged coin, causing the release wire to become stuck.The implant coil was found damaged.Possible causes for coil damage are patient vessel tortuosity, device was not hydrated, continuous flush was not administered during procedure, advancing device against resistance or damaged during shipment as the device was returned without its dispenser coil.Since the instant detacher was not returned, any contributing factors of the instant detacher to the non-detachment could not be determined.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.
