(b)(4).Catalog#: igtcfs-65-2-uni-celect-pt.(b)(4).Summary of investigational findings: unfortunately, no product was returned and without the actual complaint device, it would be inappropriate to speculate at what may or may not have occurred based on the limited information provided and it cannot be determined why the filter "would not advance fully through haemostatic valve" in the first place.However, since the filter was damaged during removal, it is suggested that the filter legs were damaged when attempts were made to withdraw the femoral loaded filter through the haemostatic valve.No evidence to suggest product was not manufactured according to specifications.Cook medical will continue to monitor for similar events.
