Blank fields on this form indicate the information is unknown, unchanged, or unavailable.Summary of event: as reported, prior to patient contact during an endovascular aneurysm repair procedure via access in the femoral artery, the tip of a performer introducer was ¿deformed¿, and a wire guide would not pass through it.The device package was not damaged, and the device was not sharp.Another device from the same lot was used to complete the procedure without any problems.The patient did not require any additional procedures or experience any adverse effects due to this event.Upon return and initial evaluation of the device on 31oct2024, the dilator tip was split.Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), manufacturing instructions, and quality control procedures were conducted during the investigation.A visual inspection of the complaint device was also conducted.The complaint device was returned to cook for investigation.The dilator was removed from the sheath without difficulty.The wire was removed from the dilator; however, slight resistance was felt as the wire passed through the dilator tip during both removal and reinsertion of the wire.The dilator tip was split.A document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record found no relevant non-conformances on the final or sub-assembly lots.A review of complaint history found no additional complaints for this lot number.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The information provided upon review of the dmr, dhr, and investigation of the returned device suggests that there is evidence the device was manufactured to specification.There is no evidence of non-conforming devices in-house or in the field.Based on the information provided and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that a component failure, unrelated to design or manufacturing, contributed to this event.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation was required.The appropriate personnel have been notified, and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.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.
