Product complaint#: (b)(4).Complaint conclusion: as reported by a healthcare professional, during a coil embolization, a 2mmx4cm deltapaq cere coil (cdf10020430, s14868) was being used as a second coil.However, when the physician tried to detach the coil, the beeping sound was normal but during retrieving delivery system, it continuously came out along the delivery system.The physician used a same like product.The procedure was successfully finished.There was no report of patient injury.An enpower detachable control box (dcb) was used in this case.One non-sterile unit deltapaq cere 2mmx4cm was received inside of a pouch.The hub was inspected, and no damages was noted on it.The core wire was inspected, and it was found broken in one section.The introducer was inspected, and it was found zipped and no damages were noted on it.The re-sheathing tool was inspected, and it was found in good conditions.The v-notch was inspected under microscope and no damages were noted on it.The rh was inspected under microscope and it was found in good conditions.The embolic coil was inspected under microscope and it was found with no damages on it.The deltapaq cere 2mmx4cm was connected to detachment control box (dcb) with a lab sample enpower control cable, and the power was turned on.The system ready light was not illuminating.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device s14868 number, and no non-conformances related to the reported complaint condition were identified.The complaint reported by the customer ¿coil- failure to detach¿ was confirm due on the functional test the system ready light was not illuminating.The complaint reported by the customer ¿coil introducer- prescore rupture¿ was not confirm due no damages were observed on the introducer.The broken condition appears to have been caused by excessive force and handling being applied to the device and may this contribute to the failure as reported, however none of those can be conclusively determined.Neither the analysis nor the mre suggest that the failure reported by the costumer could be related to the manufacturing process.Failure to detach is a known potential issue associated with the use of this device.The instructions for use (ifu) contains several precautions related to this issue and includes instructions for troubleshooting the situation should it be encountered during use.With the limited information available and without the products available for analyses, the reported customer complaint could not be confirmed.The ifu instructs the user to unsheathe a small length of the dpu to unlock the device, then to advance the embolic coil into the microcatheter until the hub connector of the dpu reaches the proximal end of the resheathing tool.This results in the placement of the embolic coil and the more flexible and fragile distal sections of the dpu inside the microcatheter before continuing to unsheathe the device.Assignment of root cause for the events remains speculative and inconclusive, based on the information provided.However, it is possible that clinical and procedural factors, including device manipulation / interaction, aneurysm size and vessel characteristics, device selection, and the concomitant microcatheter, may have contributed to the reported issues.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended to identify statistical signals for consideration of further correction action.Since there was no evidence to suggest the events were related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.
