Event Description

A physician was using a hawkone atherectomy device during the treatment of a plaque lesion in the right superficial femoral artery, popliteal artery and anterior tibial artery.There was mild tortuosity.A non-mdt sheath and a 0.014" 300cm nitrex wire were used.The ifu was followed.The vessel was not pre-dilated.It was reported they were going from the left groin with a 71 45cm non-medtronic sheath and the.014 300cm nitrex wire was through that sheath and exiting the patient's dorsalis pedis artery on the right foot.The physician had used the hawk on the sfa, pop and at.When  removing the device to clean it, moderate resistance was encountered.The physician mentioned it didn't feel like "wire wrap", but later assumed that might have been.The hawk was hung up in the external iliac (the leg they were treating) when being removed.The physician stated that the nitrex 0.014 wire had a 90degree kink which prevented the hawk from being removed.He had never seen that before and thought possibly from wire wrap.There was no vessel prep prior to atherectomy.They snared the device with a 25mm medtronic snare and pulled it out through a 8f 45cm sheath that they had to upsize to.Post angio didn't show any issues/damage to the vessel for the patient.There was no immediate post procedure complications.
