Cook ireland ltd (manufacturer) is submitting this report on behalf of cook medical incorporated (cmi)(importer).Exemption number: e2016031 information pertaining to section g.1 as follows: importer site contact and address: (b)(4) cook medical incorporated (cmi) 1025 acuff road p.O box 4195 bloomington indiana 47402-4195 importer site establishment registration number: 3005580113 the customer reported the following complaint issue; "they were able to confirm the stent migration immediately after placement of the stent.So they removed migration stent." the clso-10-8 device was expected to be returned for a lab evaluation; however as of 21/jun/2017 the device has not been returned.The complaint investigation will be updated with lab evaluation findings once the device is returned.As the device involved in this complaint was not returned for an evaluation it was not possible to determine a definitive root cause for the customer complaint.However, it should be noted that the stent contains flaps to prevent migration.Since this migration event occurred during withdrawal of the introduction system, the most probable root cause of this customer complaint could be attributed to incorrect size selection (both too short or too long for the stricture could cause migration), or to incorrect placement of the stent across the stricture which could also lead to stent migration.It is also possible that the user used an incorrect method to place the stent or to remove the introducer components.The customer complaint was confirmed based on customer testimony.As per instructions for use, ifu0045-6: ¿this device is used to drain obstructed biliary ducts¿.As per a precaution included in the instructions for use for this device: ¿the tapered tip end of the stent* or side holes* must be positioned in the common bile duct while the other end remains in the duodenum.The longer flaps of the st-2 biliary stent should be positioned in the duct while the shorter flaps remain in the duodenum.¿ it may be noted that stent migration is stated as a potential complication associated with the placement of clso devices in the ifu (ifu0045-6).Prior to distribution, all clso-10-8 devices are subjected to 100% inspection to ensure device integrity.These inspections and functional checks are outlined in internal procedures in place at cirl.Complaints of this nature will continue to be monitored for potential emerging trends.

Cook (b)(4) ltd (manufacturer) is submitting this report on behalf of cook medical incorporated (cmi)(importer).Exemption number: e2016031.(b)(4).Importer site establishment registration number: (b)(4).The clso-10-8 was returned to cirl for a lab evaluation.A lab evaluation was held on (b)(4) 2017.During the lab evaluation it was noted that there was no evidence of damage from stent removal.The anti- migration features ( flaps) were inspected and found to be as expected.There were no defects observed on the stent that could have contributed to the complaint event.As the operational conditions of use could not be replicated in the laboratory setting it was not possible to determine a definitive root cause for the customer complaint.However, it should be noted that the stent contains flaps to prevent migration.Since this migration event occurred during withdrawal of the introduction system, the most probable root cause of this customer complaint could be attributed to incorrect size selection (both too short or too long for the stricture could cause migration), or to incorrect placement of the stent across the stricture which could also lead to stent migration.It is also possible that the user used an incorrect method to place the stent or to remove the introducer components.The customer complaint was confirmed based on customer testimony.As per instructions for use, ifu0045-6: ¿this device is used to drain obstructed biliary ducts¿.As per a precaution included in the instructions for use for this device: ¿the tapered tip end of the stent* or side holes* must be positioned in the common bile duct while the other end remains in the duodenum.The longer flaps of the st-2 biliary stent should be positioned in the duct while the shorter flaps remain in the duodenum.¿ it may be noted that stent migration is stated as a potential complication associated with the placement of clso devices in the ifu (ifu0045-6).Prior to distribution, all clso-10-8 devices are subjected to 100% inspection to ensure device integrity.These inspections and functional checks are outlined in internal procedures in place at cirl complaints of this nature will continue to be monitored for potential emerging trends.
