Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the mid right coronary artery (rca).The 3.0 x 15 mm xience sierra stent delivery system was advanced to the target lesion and the balloon was inflated to 10 atmospheres (atm).During deployment, it was noted that the balloon and stent moved backwards in the vessel, proximal to the target lesion.The stent moved on the delivery catheter balloon and was deployed in the rca, but not fully at the target lesion.Additional dilatation was required to fully appose the stent to the vessel wall.A distal edge dissection was noted and an additional stent was deployed to treat the dissection and the target lesion.Post procedure, the patient was in stable condition.There were no adverse patient sequelae and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
