Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Manufacturer¿s ref.No: (b)(4).Information regarding patient identifier, date of birth, age, gender, weight, race, ethnicity, and medical history were not provided.Procode: krd/hcg.The name, phone and email address of the initial reporter are not available / reported.Physical manufacturer name: codman and shurtleff inc., dba depuy synthes products, inc.(b)(4).[conclusion]: the healthcare professional reported that during the coil embolization procedure targeting an aneurysm at the renal artery, the 4mm x 15cm deltafill 18 coil (dlf180415 / s14235) was chosen to be used.It was reported that the coil failed to detach after the physician made five detachment attempts.It was reported that the procedure was completed using the target®coil (stryker).A total of fifteen spectra coils were used in the procedure.There was no report of any patient adverse event or complications as a result of the event.Based on complaint information, the device was not available to be returned for analysis.A review of manufacturing documentation associated with this lot (s14235) presented no issues during the manufacturing or inspection processes related to the reported complaint.There were no non-conformances related to device manufacture or inspection.All product rejected during manufacturing was identified as scrap and properly accounted for.Product analysis cannot be conducted as the product was not returned for analysis.No determination of causes and possible contributing factors could be made.As such, the investigation will be closed.Failure to detach is a known potential complication associated with the use of the deltafill coil in coil embolization procedures.Based on the minimal information provided, it is not possible to determine the root cause of the failure to detach.It was not reported whether the control cable or detachment control box (dcb) were replaced during the procedure.It is also unknown if a pre-deployment electrical check was performed.The instructions for use (ifu) advises that if after depressing the detach button on the dcb or control cable, the dcb should be replaced if the light and audible tone do not activate.Also, if a fault light is detected, the system ready light is not illuminated, or there is no detachment after two detachment attempts, the dcb should be replaced.If detachment still does not occur, the microcoil system should be carefully withdrawn and replaced.Excessive force applied to a coil through repeated coil deployments or manipulation can increase the possibility of unintended detachment.Assignment of root cause for the event remains speculative and inconclusive, based on the limited information provided; however, it is possible that procedural and handling factors may have contributed event reported.As part of the post market surveillance program, information from this complaint is trended for statistical signals and corrective/preventive action may be triggered at a later time.Since there was no evidence to suggest the event was related to a manufacturing or design issue, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.This is one of 2 number of products involved with the reported complaint.The associated manufacturer report numbers are: 3008114965-2019-01217.The manufacturer will submit a supplemental report if new facts arise which materially alter information submitted in a previous mdr report.Additional information will be submitted within 30 days of receipt.
