Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The returned instrument was subjected to a technical analysis and the corresponding production documentation was reviewed to establish whether a deviation from the manufacturing process could be the cause for the reported event.The technical investigation of the returned orsiro revealed that several stent struts are severely deformed at the distal end of the stent.Microscopic analysis revealed stent imprints on the exposed balloon surface indicating that the bent struts were initially crimped on the balloon.The stent is crimped at its appropriate position.Review of the production documentation confirmed that the instrument was manufactured according to specifications and passed all in-process and final inspections.Based on the conducted investigations of the device being subject to this complaint, no material or manufacturing related root cause could be determined.The final root cause is most likely related to external factors during the procedure.
