The device was not returned for analysis.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 did not indicate a lot specific quality issue.The reported patient effect of embolism is listed in the xience sierra, everolimus eluting coronary stent system (eecss), electronic instructions for use as a known patient effect of coronary stenting procedures.The investigation determined the reported failure to advance and subsequent treatment appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure.A conclusive cause for the reported patient effect, and the relationship to the product, if any, cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
