Event or Problem Description
As reported by a healthcare professional, during coil embolization of a large 18.4 x 21.6mm left posterior communicating artery aneurysm, a presidio coil (pc418184630/c34513) could not be detached.The physician withdrew the coil and used a new coil to complete the procedure.The enpower dcb and connecting cable were both used with subsequent coils during the procedure.There was no report of patient injury and no delay in procedure.It was reported that the device would be returned for analysis.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Conclusion: the presidio was returned for analysis.The unspecified enpower detachment control box (dcb) and the connecting cable were not returned.The unidentified microcatheter was not returned.Concerning cleanliness only, the microcoil system was returned in almost pristine condition.The system was either not used or was cleaned before being returned which may have produced further damage.The detachment did not receive heat and melt.The device positioning unit (dpu) passed electrical testing with resistance at 53.4 ohms (range 48.5/56.0), and the lab sample enpower and cable systems ready green light illuminated.The coil detached on the first detachment cycle.Post-detachment inspection found that the enpower systems ready green light remained illuminated and the resistance passed at 53.4 ohms.The field complaint of the coils non-detachment could not be duplicated.Post-detachment inspection found that the detachment fiber received heat and melted as designed.No manufacturing defects were found.A review of the manufacturing documentation associated with this lot presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection process that can be related to the reported complaint.The complaint of the coils non-detachment could not be confirmed.The dpu passed electrical testing and the coil was detached on the first detachment cycle, therefore the root cause of the coils non-detachment cannot be determined.In addition, without the return of the complete detachment system and the unidentified microcatheter used in the procedure, it cannot be determined if these components contributed to the complaint event.Since there was no evidence of a manufacturing issue related to the event, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.
