  • Causa
    Based on complaints and a subsequent investigation, the manufacturer has detected an increased frequency of users reporting difficulty with stent deployment and/or separation of the bond between sections of the device outer member.The reported issues may result in an intra-procedural delay for the patient while a replacement device is prepped. partial stent deployment may result in vessel damage (carotid dissection or perforation, vessel spasm) requiring unplanned percutaneous or surgical intervention to prevent permanent injury or impairment. in most severe cases, partial stent deployment may potentially result in transient ischaemic attack or stroke.Cordis have isolated the issue to product manufactured between 27 april 2015 and 22 november 2015. product that has been manufactured after 22 november 2015 is not affected.
