Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unavailable, or unchanged.Investigation ¿ evaluation it was reported by a facility in germany an event that occurred involving a retracta detachable embolization coil.It was reported that during a product test while preparing the device, the coil was advanced and fell off.This occurred before patient contact and there were no adverse effects reported to the patient due to this occurrence.Reviews of documentation including the complaint history, device history record (dhr), quality control, and instructions for use (ifu), were conducted during the investigation.The complaint device was not returned; therefore, no physical examinations could be performed.However, a document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.A review of the dhr for the reported complaint device lot revealed no recorded non-conformances relevant to the failure mode.A complaint history search did not identify any other events associated with the reported device lot.Based on the available information, cook has concluded that the device was manufactured to specification and that there is no evidence suggesting nonconforming product exists either in house or in the field cook also reviewed product labeling.The ifu packaged with the device contains the following in relation to the reported failure mode.The current instructions for use [t_mwcer_rev6] state the following: "under fluoroscopic visualization, slowly advance the delivery wire until the entire length of coil exits the distal end of the catheter.Ensure that the junction remains positioned just inside the catheter tip.Note: advancing the delivery wire slowly allows the junction to be seen more easily and reduces the risk of damaging it.Note: if significant resistance is encountered during coil advancement, do not continue advancing.Retract the delivery wire slightly, then gently re-advance it.If there is still significant resistance, withdraw the delivery wire from the catheter and try using a new coil with a shorter length." based on the information provided, no product returned, and the results of the investigation, cook concluded that component failure unrelated to manufacturing or design deficiencies contributed to this incident.It is possible that the delivery wire was rotated during preparation, but this could not be definitively confirmed.The appropriate personnel have been notified.Cook will continue to monitor for similar complaints.Per the risk assessment no further action is required.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.
