It was reported by a healthcare professional that when the physician tried to check the syringe during preparation, prior to use with the og cmplx xtrasoft coil (640cx3509/17389194), a saline drop was not visible as the syringe gauge was at no.1.The syringe had initially been purged of air and it was confirmed that there were no air bubbles in the barrel or extension tubing of the syringe.The hub of the delivery tube was flushed prior to connecting it with the syringe.After purging, the knob of the syringe pressurized to position 2.The physician wanted to see a drop of saline at the proximal end of the coil head piece in order to ensure there is no more air in the device.Note: this event was deemed mdr reportable as a result of the device evaluation findings.
