Product: FARADRIVE STEERABLE SHEATH CLEAR OUS, used to facilitate access to the vasculature and into the chambers of the heart, Material Number M004PFCE21M402, IFU Reference Number 51659727-01. Reason: Boston Scientific's complaint investigations have identified that a subset of air ingress complaints are associated with hemostatic valve damage related to dilator insertion orientation during device preparation.
