Age at time of event: 18 years or older.(b)(4).Device evaluated by mfr: returned product consisted of an innova stent delivery system and no other devices.The outer shaft, middle shaft and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.The outer shaft was kinked at the nosecone.A kink was noticed on the outer sheath approximately 72 cm from the marker band.There also were two kinks on the inner shaft, one at 9.5 cm and the other at 15 cm from the tip.The stent was not returned for evaluation.Inspection of the remainder of the device, apart from the observed damage, revealed no other damage or irregularities.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The most probable cause is operational context as device performance was limited due to anatomical/procedural factors.(b)(4).
