Event or Problem Description
|
|
An orsiro drug-eluting stent system was chosen to treat a severely calcified lesion (95 percent stenosis degree) in the tortuous mid lad.After pre-dilatation the orsiro could not pass lesion.An extension catheter was used but the stent still didn't cross.Upon another pre-dilatation and implantation of an 2.75/15 orsiro the complaint instrument was re-inserted but couldn't cross the implanted stent.

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 the balloon is well folded and shows no signs of inflation.Stent imprints are visible on the balloon surface, indicating that the stent was initially crimped centred on the balloon.The stent was returned separately and is deformed at one end.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.Further, the stent outer diameter is verified to 100 percent and the stent retention force of a defined amount of samples is tested from every lot.Based on the conducted investigations, no manufacturing or material related root cause could be determined.
