Event Description
|
During the use of the mynxgrip vascular closure device (vcd), the physician had difficulty shuttling down and didn't feel the customary distinct stop and click at the bottom of the shuttling.There was no reported patient injury.Manual pressure was used to achieve hemostasis.The vessel diameter was verified to be greater than or equal to 5 mm in diameter.There was no presence of pvd / calcium and scar tissue in the vicinity of the puncture site.The procedure use retrograde approach.Femoral artery¿s suitability was verified on angiography, including the insertion angle (30-45 degrees) of the vascular sheath introducer.There was confirmation that the balloon was in the artery prior to balloon inflation.Temporary hemostasis was achieve after balloon inflation.After inflating and retracting the balloon of 6f/7f mynxgrip to the arteriotomy, the physician shuttled down the sealant.At that time, doctor didn't feel the customary distinct stop and click at the bottom of the shuttling.The physician deflated the balloon, removed the mynx and the unknown sheath and held pressure.They asked for another mynx and attempted to replicate the same "soft stop" and experienced the same.The patient was fine, recovered well and experienced no adverse effects.At the conclusion of an aif angio, the mynxgrip was retrieved and prepped according to the instructions for use (ifu).The operator was trained to the mynxgrip device.The devices were stored as per labeling and opened in sterile field.The devices will be returned for analysis.No other information was provided.
