Returned product consisted of an innova self-expanding stent system with the yellow thumbwheel protector still in the manufactured position.The outer sheath, tip, inner sheath and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.Visual examination revealed that the sheath is wavy in appearance when placed on a flat surface.The stent is partially deployed approximately 8.5mm from the distal end of the middle sheath.The middle sheath is no longer sitting on top of the proximal end of the tip.Microscopic examination revealed no additional damages.There is blood in the middle sheath.Inspection of the remainder of the device presented no other damage or irregularities.Product analysis found damage to the sheath that may have contributed to the premature deployment.
