This device has not been returned to numed for evaluation.From the report given to numed by the user facility, it stated that the physician inserted the device and then removed from the body to reposition.There is a specific warning in the instructions for use that states; " pulling the covered stent back through the introducer and/or hemostasis valve may cause the covering to catch and tear off of the stent." this is likely what happened in this instance to cause the covering to loosen from the stent.
