Manufacturer ref#(b)(4) updated sections on this medwatch: b4, d9, g3, g6, h2, h3, h6 and h11.Complaint conclusion: the healthcare professional reported that the 4.5x22mm enterprise vascular reconstruction device (enc452212/9166986) was impeded in the proximal end of the prowler select plus 150/5cm (606s255x, 31471109) and could not advance any more.The doctor removed the stent and microcatheter (mc) from the patient and switched to new devices to complete the procedure.Additional information received on 29-jul-2025 indicated that the device was able to be torqued.There was no evidence of physical material within the device.The microcatheter did not kink/bent.No excessive force was used with the devices.There was no procedure prolongation/delay due to the event.One photo accompanied the complaint file.In said photo, the outer and inner packaging of an enterprise system can be seen.The dispenser hoop can be seen outside the inner pouch, and a detached stent can be noticed next to the dispenser hoop.No damage is seen.The device was returned to j&j medtech for further evaluation.A non-sterile eu 4.5x22mm stent 12 mm dw tip was received contained in the decontamination pouch.Upon receiving the device, visual inspection was performed, and as described in the photo investigation, the stent was already detached from the delivery system.The distal end of the delivery wire was kinked.Microscopic inspection was performed on the stent component.It was observed to be in good condition; there was no structural damage (i.E., no broken struts, no kinks); also, it was noted fully expanded, both ends can be noted as completely flared.Although in order to perform a functional test, the stent must be attached to the delivery wire and inside the introducer, the issue reported regarding the stent being impeded is confirmed based on the damaged conditions found on the distal end of the delivery wire.It is suggested that excessive force could had been inadvertently applied during the several attempts to advance the stent through the microcatheter, resulting in the kinked condition of the delivery wire.It is possible that clinical and procedural factors, including device manipulation and operator's technique, may have contributed to the reported failure.At this time, there is no evidence to support that the issue reported in the complaint is a result of a defect inherently related to the device.The stent detachment was not originally reported, and the exact time of occurrence cannot be determined; therefore, this is not considered to the issue reported.As part of the j&j medtech quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no capa activity is required.It should be noted that product failure could be caused by multiple factors.The instructions for use (ifu) do contain the following recommendations: if resistance is met during manipulation, determine the cause of resistance before proceeding.Do not apply undue force if resistance is encountered at any point during stent manipulation.Withdraw the unit and advance a new one.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.
