Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Device evaluated by manufacturer: the device was returned for analysis.The returned complaint device consisted of a peripheral rotablator plus device.The burr catheter was received attached to the advancer unit.The advancer, handshake connections, sheath, coil, burr and annulus were microscopically exanimated.Microscopic examination of the device revealed that the annulus was damaged and not rounded which is consistent with damage seen with the use of a rotawire.The coil is stretched.As the rotawire that was used during the procedure was not returned; functional testing was performed using a test.009 rotawire.The test rotawire was inserted through the burr and advanced through the entire length of the device with no resistance.Inspection of the remainder of the device presented no other damage or irregularities.
