Event Description

It was reported that the patient presented for an implant procedure.During the procedure, after implanting the left ventricular lead, the physician attempted to attach the connector sleeve to the lead, but the sleeve would not fit over the lead entirely.The sleeve was replaced, but it did not resolve the issue as the lead appeared to be too thick past the fourth electrode.The physician used a competitor's connector sleeve and the lead was able to be tested through the pacing systems analyzer.The lead was working appropriately and was used to complete implant.The patient was in stable condition.
