Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a heavily calcified and chronic totally occluded (cto) mid circumflex artery with 90% stenosis.Pre-dilatation was performed with an unspecified 2.5x 15 mm balloon catheter.A 2.25 x 12 mm xience prime stent delivery system could not cross the lesion due to the calcification and angulation of the vessel and a dissection occurred.The dissection was treated with a 1.5 x 10 mm balloon catheter.The same xience prime stent was successfully implanted to complete the procedure.The patient is stable.There was no clinically significant delay in procedure and no adverse patient effects.No additional information was provided.

(b)(4).Correction- device is not being returned.(b)(4).The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history of the reported lot did not indicate a lot specific quality issue.The reported patient effect of dissection is a known observed and potential patient effect as listed in the xience prime everolimus eluting coronary stent system instructions for use (ifu).The reported patient effects are a known inherent risk of the procedure and the physical resistance and treatment appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure.Based on the information reviewed, there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.
