Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr: stent delivery system (sds) was returned for analysis.A visual examination of the stent found that stent struts on the proximal stent rows 5-6 were flared and deformed.The undamaged section of the crimped stent od (outer diameter) was measured and was within the maximum crimped stent profile measurement.Stent damage most likely occurred due to handling of the device during unpacking.A visual examination of the bumper tip showed no signs of damage.The balloon cones were reviewed and no issues were noted.The balloon wings were tightly wrapped and evenly folded and were not subjected to positive pressure.A visual and tactile examination found multiple kinks along several locations of the hypotube shaft.This type of damage is consistent with excessive pressure being applied on the delivery system.A visual and tactile examination of the inner and outer lumen and mid-shaft section found no issues with the shaft polymer extrusion.The bicomponent bond showed no signs of damage or strain.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.The most probable root cause is considered handling damage as the event occurred without direct patient contact.(b)(4).
