DURING THE LAB EVALUATION IT WAS NOTED THAT THE DEVICE WAS DAMAGED AT BOTH THE DUODENAL AND DUCTAL ENDS OF THE STENT AT THE BASE OF THE FLAPS, THE DAMAGE AT EITHER END RESEMBLED PINCH LIKE MARKS WHICH WOULD BE CONSISTENT REMOVAL OF THE STENT WITH GRASPERS/ FORCEPS. THERE WERE NO DEFECTS IDENTIFIED THAT COULD HAVE ATTRIBUTED TO THE INABILITY TO PASS THE STRICTURE. IT WAS NOTED DURING THE LAB EVALUATION THAT IT IS LIKELY THAT AN INCORRECT SIZE STENT WAS SELECTED WHICH ATTRIBUTED TO THE INABILITY TO PASS THE STRICTURE, I.E. THE STENT DIAMETER (FRENCH SIZE 10) MAY HAVE BEEN TOO LARGE FOR THE STRICTURE. THE COMPLAINT IS CONFIRMED BASED ON CUSTOMER TESTIMONY AS THE CLINICAL SETTINGS THAT COULD IMPACT ON THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE DEVICE CANNOT BE REPLICATED IN THE LABORATORY. DOCUMENTATION REVIEW: A REVIEW OF THE MANUFACTURING RECORDS FOR THE CLSO-10-15 DEVICE OF LOT # C1393403 DID NOT REVEAL ANY DISCREPANCY RELATED TO THE COMPLAINT ISSUE. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE TO SUGGEST THAT THIS ISSUE AFFECTS THE ENTIRE LOT # C1393403; UPON REVIEW OF COMPLAINTS, THIS FAILURE MODE HAS NOT OCCURRED PREVIOUSLY WITH THIS LOT # C1393403. FQC/PKG REVIEW: PRIOR TO DISTRIBUTION, ALL CLSO-10-13 DEVICES ARE SUBJECT TO VISUAL INSPECTION AND FUNCTIONAL CHECKS TO ENSURE DEVICE INTEGRITY. THERE IS ALSO A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE PRODUCT AND PACKAGING AT PACKAGING, PACKAGING QC, AND POST STERILE QC. IFU REVIEW: IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT AS PER THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE CONTRAINDICATIONS SECTION THE USER IS ADVISED THAT "AN INABILITY TO PASS WIRE OR STENT THROUGH THE OBSTRUCTED AREA" IS CONTRAINDICATED. ROOT CAUSE: A DEFINITIVE ROOT CAUSE FOR THIS COMPLAINT COULD NOT BE DETERMINED AS THE EXACT OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS OF USE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED IN A LABORATORY SETTING. A PROBABLE ROOT CAUSE FOR THIS COMPLAINT MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE INAPPROPRIATE STENT SIZE CHOSEN WHICH MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE INABILITY TO PASS THE STENT THROUGH THE STRICTURE IN THE INTRAHEPATIC DUCT. IF THE PATIENT¿S ANATOMY WAS HIGHLY TORTUOUS THIS MAY HAVE RESULTED IN THE CLSO-10-13 STENT BEING TOO LARGE TO PASS THE STRICTURE. IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT A FIRMER STENT WAS REQUIRED AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO PASS THE STRICTURE. SUMMARY: THE COMPLAINT IS CONFIRMED BASED ON CUSTOMER TESTIMONY AS THE CLINICAL SETTINGS THAT COULD IMPACT ON THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE DEVICE CANNOT BE REPLICATED IN THE LABORATORY. COMPLAINTS OF THIS NATURE WILL CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED FOR POTENTIAL EMERGING TRENDS.
