Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This is initial/final mdr report being submitted for this complaint with associated mfr# 3008264254-2017-00029, 3008264254-2017-00027 and 3008264254-2017-00028.Additional procode: krd.(b)(4).A non-sterile orbit galaxy tdl cmplx fill coil 5x10 was received coiled inside of a coil plastic bag.The hypotube was inspected and it was found kinked at 86 and 88cm from the proximal end.The introducer was received unzipped without damage and part of the support coil was found outside of the introducer from the proximal end.The gripper and the embolic coil were found outside of the introducer.The gripper and embolic coil were inspected under microscope; the gripper was found without damage while the embolic coil was found stretched.The functional test could not be performed as part of the support coil was found outside of the introducer from the proximal end.A review of the manufacturing documentation associated with this lot 17498369 presented no issues during the manufacturing process that can be related to the reported complaint.The failure reported by the costumer as ¿delivery tube - damaged-in patient" was confirmed during the visual analysis.The kinked section found on the device was apparently caused by excessive force applied on the devices but it could not be conclusively determined.The failure reported by the customer as ¿coil ¿ impeded¿ could not be evaluated as part of the support coil was found outside of the introducer from the proximal end.Neither the dhr review nor the product analysis suggests that the failure experienced by the customer is related to the manufacturing process; handling and procedural factors could have contributed to this condition.No corrective or preventive actions will be taken.
