Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr: promus element mr,ous, 3.0x32mm stent delivery system (sds) was returned.The stent slipped over balloon and lost in femoral artery therefore not returned for analysis.The maximum stent profile of the complaint device at the time of manufacture was reviewed and was verified to be within maximum crimped stent profile measurement.The balloon cones were reviewed and no issues were noted.Balloon wings were in original folded position.Crimp stent markings were evident on the exposed proximal portion of the balloon wall, indicating that there was crimp contact between the coated stent and balloon at the time of manufacture.A visual and tactile examination found a hypotube break 15mm distal from the distal end of the strain relief and multiple hypotube kinks along the full catheter length.A visual and tactile examination found a kink and stretching to the inner shaft polymer extrusion 3mm distal to the bi-component bond.The bi-component bond showed no signs of damage or strain.A visual examination found no tip damage.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The investigation conclusion is operational context as the product meets the design and manufacture specification but due to anatomical/procedural factors encountered during the procedure, performance was limited.(b)(4).
