Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The returned product 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 this event.The technical investigation of the returned instrument revealed that two stent struts are bent outwards at the proximal 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.Review of the production documentation confirmed that the instrument was manufactured according to specifications and passed all in-process and final inspections.As a part of final inspection every stent system undergoes visual inspection to ensure correct embedding and homogeneous crimping of the stent.Based on the conducted investigations, no manufacturing or material related root cause could be determined.
