Additional Manufacturer Narrative
G9: exemption number e2019001-permits numbering sequence to begin with 10000, to avoid duplication of report numbers due to process transition.There may be gaps in numbering for reports submitted during the transition period.Visual and functional analysis was performed on the returned device.The reported difficulties were not confirmed as the stent was already deployed and remains in the patient.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history revealed no indication to suggest a lot specific product issue.The investigation determined that the reported difficulties were likely related to procedural circumstances.It is likely that the distal shaft was bent or restricted in the anatomy preventing the shaft lumens from moving freely and causing the resistance thumbwheel.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.
