Event Description
|
The report received from the affiliate indicated that the patient was enrolled in a clinical study (b)(4) smart pms for sfa (superficial femoral artery).During the study index procedure a smart control 7 x 60 stent was implanted in the target lesion without any issue.Two days after the index procedure, thrombus in the stent was noted.Three days later, the occlusion was treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) and the patient partially recovered.Thirteen days after the index procedure, the thrombosis in the stent was treated by pta and the patient partially recovered.Thirty two days after the index procedure, re-occlusion of the lesion was observed and surgical amputation of leg above the knee was conducted.Three months after the amputation, the flow was rebuilt with a synthetic graft.Fifty-one days after the index procedure, the patient developed pneumonia (acute exacerbations of copd).Approximately seven months after the index procedure, with medication and surgical operation, the patient was outcome to partially recover and the patient was transferred to a different hospital.Later the same month after transfer to the other hospital, the patient experienced redness at the lesion.Approximately eight months after the index procedure, the patient had a fever due to the flu and expired fifteen days later due to the flu.Additional information has been requested.

As reported, the patient was enrolled in a (b)(4) study (b)(4).During the study index procedure a smart control 7 x 60 stent was implanted in the target lesion without any issue.Two days after the index procedure, thrombus in the stent was noted.Three days later, the occlusion was treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) and the patient partially recovered.Thirteen days after the index procedure, the thrombosis in the stent was treated by pta and the patient partially recovered.Thirty two days after the index procedure, re-occlusion of the lesion was observed and surgical amputation of leg above the knee was conducted.Three months after the amputation, the flow was rebuilt with a synthetic graft.Fifty-one days after the index procedure, the patient developed pneumonia (acute exacerbations of copd).Approximately seven months after the index procedure, with medication and surgical operation, the patient was outcome to partially recover and the patient was transferred to a different hospital.Later the same month after transfer to the other hospital, the patient experienced redness at the lesion.Approximately eight months after the index procedure, the patient had a fever due to the flu and expired fifteen days later due to the flu.Multiple attempts to obtain additional information were unsuccessful.The product was not returned for analysis.Manufacturing record (dhr) review was conducted and the product met quality requirements for product acceptance per the applicable manufacturing quality plan.Based on the information provided and the inability to assign or determine a root cause, no corrective actions will be taken at this time.Thrombosis and restenosis are known complications of patients with peripheral vascular disease who have undergone percutaneous intervention and are captured in the instructions for use (ifu) as such.There are possible patient, vessel/lesion, and pharmacological factors that may have contributed to the reported events.Based on the minimal available information there is no evidence to suggest that the event was design or manufacturing related therefore no corrective action will be taken.
