Hazard / Issue

Certain product code/lot number combinations may experience introducer sheath compatibility issues when used with a 6F introducer sheath. Using the affected balloon expandable vascular covered stents with a 6F introducer sheath could result in difficulty or the inability to insert or advance the catheter through the introducer sheath. This could potentially lead to a slight prolongation of the procedure.
