Event Description
|
It was reported that the eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent was stretched.During the endovascular therapy treatment in the superficial femoral artery (sfa), the eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was selected for use.The target lesion was moderately tortuous and calcified and was 100% stenosed.The target lesion was predilated using a non-bsc balloon catheter.The eluvia drug-eluting vascular stent system was advanced to the target lesion in the sfa and deployment was attempted.There was a strong force necessary to rotate the thumbwheel, but the stent did not deploy.The pull grip was attempted to be utilized, but ultimately did not deploy the stent.The stent was eventually placed, but the proximal side was elongated by 1 cm.An additional eluvia, 7x80 was placed in the target lesion, and the eluvia was post-dilated.The procedure was completed.There were no reported adverse consequences to the patient.

(b)(6).G2 - report source: user facility removed.Device/media analysis: returned product consisted of an eluvia self-expanding stent system with a non-bsc 0.014 in.Filter guidewire stuck in the device.The outer sheath, tip, inner sheath and the remainder of the device were checked for damage.Visual examination revealed that the sheath was kinked at the nosecone.Microscopic examination revealed no additional damages.The stent was deployed and did not return for analysis.The handle was x-rayed, and the proximal inner was prolapsed.Inspection of the remainder of the device, revealed no other damage or irregularities.Product analysis found damage that would have contributed to the deployment issue and stent deformation.
