This is final mdr report being submitted for this complaint with associated mfr# 3008264254-2017-00034.A non-sterile orbit galaxy cmplx fill coil 3x8 was received coiled inside of a plastic bag.The hypotube was inspected and no damages were noted on it.The introducer was found zipped without damage, inside of it and the support coil, gripper and the embolic coil were found on it original position.The gripper and embolic coil were inspected under microscope; no damages were noted on the gripper while the embolic oil was found stretched.A review of the manufacturing documentation associated with this lot 17397559 presented no issues during the manufacturing process that can be related to the reported complaint.The failure reported by the customer as ¿packaging/pouch/box - labeling incorrect¿ was not confirmed as the information printed on the label was compared with the dhr information and no anomalies were noted on the (coil size, catalog number, expiration date, lot number and shape).The failure experienced by the customer appears was due to the stretched condition noted on the embolic coil.The stretched condition noted on the embolic coil was apparently caused by excessive force applied on the device but it could not be conclusively determined.Neither the analysis nor the dhr suggest that the failure reported could be related to the manufacturing process, handling and procedural factors could have contributed to this condition.No corrective or preventive actions will be taken.
