Event or Problem Description

It was reported that partial stent deployment and stent damage occurred.The 80% stenosed target lesion was located in the moderately calcified superficial femoral artery (sfa).The lesion was pre-dilated with a 3mm coyote balloon catheter.A 5x200x130 innova was selected and advanced over a.035' non bsc guidewire via a contralateral approach to the target lesion.The physician noticed a drag while advancing the delivery system.Deployment was initiated and the stent deployed 190mm.The last 10mm would not deploy from the delivery system.Eventually the stent was fully deployed by the physician performing a gentle tug of the delivery system.It was observed that the last 10mm of the stent was stretched.An additional 150mm innova stent was used to cover the stretched portion of the stent.No patient complications were reported and the patient's status is fine.

Device evaluated by manufacturer: an innova self-expanding stent delivery system (sds) was returned and the outer shaft, mid-shaft and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.Visual examination showed a kink at the nosecone.The mid-shaft showed no damage.The inner liner showed a kink approximately 18.5cm from the tip.The handle was opened for inspection for further damage no additional damage was noticed.The stent damage could not be confirmed due to the stent not being returned.Inspection of the remainder of the device, apart from the observed damage, revealed no other damage or irregularities.The most probable root cause is operational context as device performance was limited due to anatomical procedural factors.(b)(4).
