(b)(4).Device evaluated by mfr: returned product consisted of an innova self-expanding stent delivery system.The outer shaft, middle shaft, inner sheath and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.There was a kink at the nosecone of the device.There were also multiple kinks on the outer sheath.The proximal inner and the inner liner were separated from the handle.There were multiple kinks on the shafts when returned.There was no wire stuck in the device when returned.The handle was opened to investigate for additional damage.Visual analysis revealed that the mid-shaft inside of the handle was detached from the retainer clip which is an indication of high tensile force on the mid-shaft during the procedure.The stent was reportedly placed in the patient.Inspection of the remainder of the device, revealed no other damage or irregularities.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).
