A visual and dimensional analysis was performed on the returned device.The stent dislodgment was confirmed.Production record and corrective and preventative actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a query of the complaint handling database for the reported lot revealed there is no indication of a lot of specific issue.Based on the reported information and the observations from the returned analysis, a definitive cause for the reported difficulties could not be determined.In this case, it is possible that inadvertent mishandling during unpacking or preparation contributed to the dislodged stent; however, this cannot be confirmed.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
