MEDWATCH 1820334-2018-01398, LOT: 7423636, QUANTITY: 1DEVICES, MEDWATCH 1820334-2018-01399, LOT: 7292138, QUANTITY: 1DEVICES, MEDWATCH 1820334-2018-01400, LOT: 7815839, QUANTITY: 1DEVICES, MEDWATCH 1820334-2018-03888, LOT: 7858778, QUANTITY: 1DEVICES LOT: 7698119, QUANTITY 1DEVICES, MEDWATCH 1820334-2018-01390, LOT: 7262416, QUANTITY: 1DEVICES. INVESTIGATION: EVALUATION: A REVIEW OF THE COMPLAINT HISTORY, DEVICE HISTORY RECORD, DOCUMENTATION, INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE (IFU), MANUFACTURING INSTRUCTIONS, QUALITY CONTROL, AND SPECIFICATIONS OF THE DEVICE WAS CONDUCTED DURING THE INVESTIGATION. CLINICAL ASSESSMENT: THIS TIME, THE COMPLAINT APPEARS TO BE AN ADVERSE EVENT FOLLOWING A PROCEDURE WHERE COOK MANUFACTURED COILS WERE PLACED. UNLESS FURTHER INFORMATION IS RECEIVED, THE MOST PROBABLE CAUSES OF THIS EVENT ARE HUMAN ANATOMY AND MEDICAL PROCEDURE RELATED. THE COMPLAINT DEVICE WAS NOT RETURNED; THEREFORE, NO PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS COULD BE PERFORMED. HOWEVER, A DOCUMENT BASED INVESTIGATION EVALUATION WAS PERFORMED. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE TO SUGGEST THE PRODUCT WAS NOT MADE TO SPECIFICATIONS. A REVIEW OF RELEVANT MANUFACTURING DOCUMENTS WAS CONDUCTED. IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT THE DEVICE ASPECT IN QUESTION WAS VISUALLY/FUNCTIONALLY INSPECTED BY QUALITY CONTROL AND NO NOTABLE GAPS IN PRODUCTION OR PROCESSING CONTROLS WERE NOTED. THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORD FOR LOT NUMBER: 7698119 WAS REVIEWED. NO NON-CONFORMANCES WERE NOTED. A SEARCH OF OUR COMPLAINT RECORDS INDICATES THAT THIS IS THE ONLY COMPLAINT ON THE LOT NUMBER AT THE TIME OF INVESTIGATION. THEREFORE, THERE IS NO INDICATION FROM THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORD THAT THERE IS NONCONFORMING PRODUCT IN THE FIELD. SPECIFICALLY WITHIN THE IFU, THE SECTION UNDER DEVICE DESCRIPTION FOR OUR DEVICE (IMWCE-35-8-8) STATES, "MREYE EMBOLIZATION COILS ARE CONSTRUCTED OF AN MR CONDITIONAL SUPER ALLOY, WHICH HAS SIMILAR PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS TO STAINLESS STEEL, BUT HAS NO FERROMAGNETIC PROPERTIES. THE COILS ARE EASILY DETECTED RADIOGRAPHICALLY AND ARE CONSIDERED TO BE MR CONDITIONAL, WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MINOR ARTIFACTS TO BE OBSERVED IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE DEVICE. THE COILS FEATURE SPACED SYNTHETIC FIBERS TO MAXIMIZE THROMBOGENICITY. BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED, NO PRODUCT RETURNED AND THE RESULTS OF OUR INVESTIGATION, A DEFINITIVE ROOT CAUSE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. WE HAVE NOTIFIED THE APPROPRIATE PERSONNEL AND WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. THE RISK SPECIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT FOR THIS PRODUCT INCLUDES THE BIOCOMPATIBILITY FAILURE MODE AND ADVERSE PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSE RESPECTIVELY. PER THE QUALITY ENGINEERING RISK ASSESSMENT NO FURTHER ACTION IS REQUIRED. THIS REPORT IS REQUIRED BY THE FDA UNDER 21 CFR PART 803 AND IS BASED ON UNCONFIRMED INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY OTHERS. NEITHER THE SUBMISSION OF THIS REPORT NOR ANY STATEMENT CONTAINED HEREIN IS INTENDED TO BE AN ADMISSION THAT ANY COOK DEVICE IS DEFECTIVE OR MALFUNCTIONED, THAT A DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY OCCURRED, NOR THAT ANY COOK DEVICE CAUSED, CONTRIBUTED TO, OR IS LIKELY TO CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO A DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY IF A MALFUNCTION OCCURRED.
