Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the interventional radiology department, during the deployment, the coil became stuck in the catheter and unraveled along its entire length up to the distal end of the catheter.The operator attempted to release the coil but was unsuccessful.He then cut the catheter to remove the coil and avoid releasing metallic particles into the patient's vascular system.The incident led to an extension of the operating time (approximately 30 minutes) without any other consequence for the patient.The incident is isolated.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The investigation of the returned coil system found the implant stretched, broken, and partially stuck within the returned catheter, which is consistent with the alleged product issue.The catheter was returned cut as described in the reported event.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the implant damage, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces exceeding the implant's yield and tensile strength.
