Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Exemption number e2019001.A visual inspection was performed on the returned device.The reported stent dislodgement was confirmed.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other incidents.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported stent dislodgement.In this case, it is possible that inadvertent mishandling during protective sheath/stylet removal resulted in the reported stent dislodgement and noted bent and stretched struts; however, this cannot be confirmed.There is no indication of a product quality issue; therefore, no product related corrective action is required.
