It was reported that the patient reported with an acute myocardial infarction (ami).On (b)(6) 2014, the procedure was to treat a 100% stenosed lesion in the mildly tortuous left anterior descending (lad) artery.After placement of a non-abbott guide wire, pre-dilatation was performed with a 1.5x15mm non-abbott balloon dilatation catheter (bdc).The 2.5x23mm xience xpedition stent implant was successfully deployed at 10 atmospheres (atm).The procedure was completed without any reported device or procedure issues.Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (timi) flow improved to timi 3 and the stent implant was noted to be well expanded by angiography.The procedure was completed without any reported device or procedure issues.Later on the same day of the procedure, the patient experienced nausea and chest discomfort.On (b)(6) 2014, angiogram revealed in-stent thrombosis of the deployed 2.5x23mm xience xpedition stent implant.After placement of a non-abbott guide wire, aspiration was performed and medicine was administered.However, timi flow was timi 2.Therefore, a non-abbott embolic protection device (epd) was placed and the vessel was dilated with a 2.5x15mm non-abbott bdc at 12 atm, restoring timi flow 3.The patient was discharged on (b)(6) 2014.There was no reported adverse patient sequela.There was no additional information provided.

(b)(4).There was no reported device malfunction and the product was not returned.A review of the lot history record revealed no non-conformances that would have contributed to the reported event.Angina, ischemia, nausea, and thrombosis are listed in the xience xpedition everolimus eluting coronary stent systems instructions for use (ifu) as known patient effects of coronary stenting procedures.Based on the information reviewed, there is no evidence to indicate the presence of a product deficiency.
