Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the patient was implanted the smart control stent in the target lesion without any issue.Two years later, the patient had claudication on the right leg and occlusive thrombosis was confirmed in the stent.A fogarty procedure was performed the next day and the patient recovered.Three years after the procedure, the patient expired.The patient¿s death is unknown.The target lesion was the distal portion of the right superficial femoral artery.The patient¿s vessel level of tortuosity and calcification was unknown.The rate of stenosis was unknown.This is a case from (b)(4) smart pms for sfa and the case number is (b)(4).

It was reported that the patient was implanted the smart control stent in the target lesion without any issue.Two years later, the patient had claudication on the right leg and occlusive thrombosis was confirmed in the stent.A fogarty procedure was performed the next day and the patient recovered.Three years after the procedure, the patient expired.The patient¿s death is unknown.The target lesion was the distal portion of the right superficial femoral artery.The patient¿s vessel level of tortuosity and calcification was unknown.The rate of stenosis was 99%.The length of the lesion is 20mm.There was not more than one stent placed.This is a case from (b)(4) smart pms for sfa and the case number is (b)(4).The product was not returned for analysis.A device history record review of lot 15624207 was performed and showed that these lots of products met all requirements per the applicable manufacturing quality plan and that there were no anomalies during the manufacturing.Based on the limited information provided, it is not possible to draw a conclusion about a clinical relationship between the device and the event.Without the return of the device for analysis, the reported customer complaint could not be confirmed and no determination of possible contributing factors could be made.In-stent restenosis (isr) is associated with the progression of atherosclerotic disease and is a known potential adverse event following stent implantation and does not represent a device failure.Intra-arterial stent placement is a treatment of the disease process, it is not a preventive or cure for the progression of symptoms of atherosclerotic artery disease.Vessel occlusion, restenosis, intimal hyperplasia or recurrent strictures are well known documented potential complications of this type of procedure and are listed in the ifu as such.In the literature, in-stent stenosis rates range from 11% to 39% from 6 to 12 months after stent placement.Rates were higher in older patients with more severe atherosclerosis and depended on the type of stenosis treated.Isr is more prevalent in ostial stent placement procedures.Stenoses in stents are usually treated with intrastent pta or placement of a second stent.Based on the available information there is no evidence to suggest that the event was design or manufacturing related.The dhr reviews does not suggests that the reported failures could be related to the manufacturing process of the unit.Therefore no corrective action will be taken.
