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 delivery system showed that the balloon is well folded and does not show any signs of inflation.Microscopic analysis of the balloon surface revealed clearly visible stent imprints, indicating that the stent was properly crimped in between the two radiopaque markers at the time of delivery.The dislodged stent was not returned for analysis.Review of the manufacturing documentation of the product detailed above did not reveal any non-conformity.During final inspection, every stent system undergoes visual inspection to ensure correct stent 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.The device in question was manufactured according to specifications and successfully passed all in-process controls as well as the final inspection.Based on the conducted investigations of the device being subject to this complaint, no material or manufacturing related root cause was determined.
