Exemption number e2016032.William cook europe aps (manufacturer) is submitting this report on behalf of cook medical incorporated (cmi) (importer).Manufacturer ref# (b)(4).G1) name and address for importer site: (b)(6).Registration no.: (b)(4).Summary of investigational findings: based on the limited event description and there being no reference to which procedural approach the physician has selected and the limited product provided it would be inappropriate to speculate at what may or may not have caused the filter to partially expand prior to deployment.However, it could be suspected that a jugular approach was selected during the procedure and that the protection sheath was not completely advanced over the filter.The current version of the ifu references this, see section for preparation for jugular approach.5.Straighten the system and then advance the protection sheath over the filter until a confirmed stop is felt (approximately 6 cm).This ensures that the filter is completely inside the tip of the protection sheath.It is noted that the filter was "safely removed without patient compromise" and the patient recieved a second filter that was successfuly placed.There is no evidence to suggest that this device was not manufactured according to specifications.Cook medical will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803.This report is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement made in it is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned; that a death or serious injury occurred; or that any cook device caused or contributed to; or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
