Returned product consisted of an epic self-expanding stent system.The outer sheath, tip, and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.No damage was noticed on the device.The stent was inadvertently partially deployed approximately 4.5mm from the marker band.Inspection of the remainder of the device, 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 root cause is considered handling damage as the event occurred prior to patient contact.(b)(4).
