Exemption number e2016032.(b)(4).Manufacturer ref# (b)(4).After investigation the event for this pr# is no longer reportable (b)(4).Summary of investigational findings: no product was returned and no imaging was provided.Therefore, based on the limited information provided it would be inappropriate to speculate at what may or may not have caused the difficulties in advancing the balloon expandable stent device over the wire guide.However, it is noted that the complaint report does not mention any placement/advancement through a guiding catheter/introducer, as referenced in the ifu.No evidence to suggest that this device was not manufactured according to specifications and nothing indicates that it did not perform as intended.Cook medical will continue to monitor for similar events.
