(b)(4).Evaluation summary: the device was returned for analysis.The reported shaft detachment was able to be confirmed.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely that inadvertent mishandling while removing the protective sheath resulted in the noted stent and shaft damage and ultimately resulted in the reported shaft detachment.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
