Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Device evaluated by mfr: the product was not received for analysis.However, there was a photo of the complaint device and detached stent.The photo was visually reviewed, and it showed that the stent was detached from the balloon.The balloon appeared to still be folded with stent impressions with a lot of bright red blood present at both ends of the balloon cones which appeared to be under the balloon folds.The stent impressions indicate that the stent was crimped on the stent prior to being placed in to the stent protector.As the stent protector was able to be placed on the crimped stent during manufacturing, this indicates that the device was manufactured correctly.With the amount of blood in the balloon cones and the appearance of the device in the photo, it looks like the device came into contact with blood and was not just prepped on the back table.Analysis was concluded based on the received photo of the complaint device.
