Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The investigation of the returned coil system found the implant stretched at the proximal section and separated from the pusher; however, no indications of activation using a detachment controller was found on the pusher heater coil.The investigation found the pusher's monofilament with a tensile break shape at the tip, which is consistent with the device experiencing force that exceeded the strength of the monofilament causing the implant to separate from the pusher.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the stretched implant, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces exceeding the implant's yield strength.The catheter used in the procedure was not returned, so the investigation could not determine if it had caused or contributed to the reported complaint.
