This report is being submitted as follow up no.1 and to provide the completed investigation results.H6 - results - 3211 is based upon the evaluation of user facility information and the investigation of the returned sample; 213 is based upon functional testing of the returned sample.One used 8fr angio-seal sts plus was received for product evaluation.The carrier tube assembly, hemostasis sheath, arteriotomy locator and bypass tube were returned.Visual inspection revealed a slight kink noted on the arteriotomy locator.The deployment sleeve was found to be in the forward lock position.The bypass tube was completely detached from the main body of the carrier tube and the anchor and dried collagen were exposed as can be seen in the attached pictures.The carrier tube assembly was then examined, and no anomalies were noted.No deformation or damage was noted on the anchor and bypass tube.No other visual anomalies were noted with the device.Functional testing was performed and the arteriotomy locator was inserted into the hemostasis sheath.The arteriotomy locator was clicked and locked into the hemostasis sheath as intended and a clear tactile snap was audible.Blood inlet holes were checked and properly aligned.The bypass tube was then reinserted over the anchor manually to set to on its manufacturing position.No obstruction was noted during insertion.The carrier tube assembly was placed into the hemostasis sheath and click sound was heard.The anchor and the distal tip of the carrier tube were exposed from the sheath.No anomalies or resistance were felt during setting up the anchor.The device sleeve was checked and verified in the full forward lock position.The hub of sheath cap and the device sleeve was completely snapped together and properly fitted.The deployment sleeve was then moved into the rear lock position and the anchor posted to the sheath.The digital force was applied to the anchor and the suture with collagen was released along with the tamper tube.There were no functional anomalies noted with the device.Based on the provided information and investigation results, there is no definitive evidence that this event was related to a device defect or malfunction.The investigation results verified the returned sample was of the normal product.The exact cause of the reported event cannot be definitively determined based on the available information.
