Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The investigation of the returned coil system found the pusher coil and implant coil stretched.The pusher was returned partially stuck within the microcatheter, which is consistent with the condition described in the reported event; however, the implant was found to be attached to the pusher upon receipt.The investigation of the returned device did not find any damage or other anomaly that would have caused or contributed to the reported premature detachment.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the stretched pusher and implant, but stretching is consistent with the device experiencing forces exceeding the pusher and implant's yield strength.The microcatheter was not found damaged and would not have caused or contributed to the reported complaint.
