Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The device was not returned for analysis.Production record and corrective and preventive actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a review of the complaint handling database identified no other incidents from this lot.As there was no damage noted to the device during the inspection prior to use, the investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that resistance was met with the moderately calcified anatomy resulting in the reported failure to advance.Interaction with the moderately calcified anatomy and/or other devices resulted in the reported peeled / delaminated black coating.Based on the reported information and results of the complaint investigation there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.D9 correction: device available for evaluation updated from yes to no.
