Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Manufacturer ref# (b)(4).Updated sections on this medwatch: b4, g3, g6, h2, h6 and h11.Complaint conclusion: a healthcare professional reported that during a coil embolization, a galaxy g3 mini 1mm x 1cm coil (glm910010, 0632514s) was attempted to be detached 3-4 times.Nevertheless, the coil was not detected.There was no patient injury reported.No additional information is available.Since no device has been received for analysis, no product investigation can be performed and the reported failure could not be evaluated.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device (b)(4) number, and no non-conformances related to the malfunction were identified.With the information available and without the product available for analysis, the reported customer complaint could not be confirmed.Based on the manufacturing record evaluation, there is no indication that the event is related to the device manufacturing process.The exact cause of the event could not be determined; however, there are circumstances of the procedure that may have contributed to the reported failure.Failure to detach is a known potential complication, that could cause stretching, separation and/or premature detachment.There are clinical and procedural factors, including aneurysm/vessel characteristics (i.E., tortuous anatomy), device selection, device interaction, and operator technique, that may have contributed to the reported event rather than the design or manufacture of the device.The instructions for use (ifu) contains several precautions related to this issue and includes instructions for troubleshooting the situation should it be encountered during use.Multiple attempts to obtain additional information were unsuccessful.If information is provided at a later date, the file will be reopened and processed accordingly.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended to identify statistical signals for consideration of further correction action.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.A supplemental report will be submitted if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.
