Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This is one of one initial/final mdr report being submitted for this complaint with associated manufacturing mfr# 3008264254-2016-00057.Additional procode: krd.(b)(4).Four galaxy coils, prowler lpes 45 deg.A non-sterile og helical xtrsoft coil 2x6 was received coiled inside a plastic bag in a pouch of original packaging.The hypotube was inspected and was found to be kinked at 76, 94.8 and 144.8cm from the proximal end of the hub.The introducer was received un-zipped, without damage and with residues of dry blood on the inside.The support coil and gripper were received outside of the introducer; no damages were noted on the support coil.Rest of the embolic coil was found inside the catheter body.The gripper was inspected under the vision system and was found to be damaged.The soldered section between headpiece and the coil loops was not fractured which means that the solder had a good adhesion to the headpiece.Catheter body was inspected under the vision system; scrunch was noted on the catheter which may be caused by application of excessive force on it.Rest of the embolic coil was found in the distal part of the catheter.The coil was found to be stretched and busted and the suture of the embolic coil was broken.Part of the alligator snare (unknown) device was found in the other section of the catheter and was noted to be cut.Residues of dry blood were noted on the body.The surface of catheter body presented evidence of elongation at the surroundings areas of the separation and cut condition.A review of the manufacturing documentation associated with this lot presented no issues during the manufacturing process that can be related to the reported complaint.The reported failure of the og xtrsoft coil being unraveled and stretched was confirmed.The condition found on the embolic coil was apparently caused due to application of excessive force on the device but it could not be conclusively determined.Neither the analysis nor the dhr suggest that the failure reported could be related to the manufacturing process and procedural factors appear to have contributed to this failure.Therefore no corrective action will be taken at this time.
 
Event or Problem Description
As reported by a healthcare professional, during elective coiling of a ruptured aneurysm in the anterior communicating artery, physician reported a stretched coil.Physician had previously placed 4 galaxy coils through a prowler lpes 45 degree microcatheter without incident when he attempted to place the final "finishing" coil, a galaxy xtrasoft 2x6 ((b)(4)).Physician reported that during the second attempt to reposition the coil, it appeared that the coil prematurely detached.It was then determined that the coil had stretched not detached, when a stretched segment was pushed into the left middle cerebral artery causing a temporary occlusion.Physician retrieved the coil with an alligator snare and removed the entire segment of coil.Physician did not report any abnormalities with the coil during prep or initial advancement.Continuous flush was maintained.There were no patient injuries due to the reported event.The patient is a (b)(6) year old female whose vessels were reported to be of low tortuosity.The patient was a hunt hess grade 5 at admission and remains hospitalized, recovering.The complaint product is available for analysis.
