Event Description
|
It was reported that the 2.25x23 mm xience sierra stent delivery system (sds) was difficult to load on the guide wire.When it was advanced to the distal left anterior descending coronary artery, it did not feel right.Attempt was made to deploy the xience at the lesion, but it would not deploy.After the sds was removed from the anatomy, attempt was made to deploy it and contrast was noted coming out the distal end of the hypotube.Another same size xience sierra was used to complete the procedure without further incident.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.There was no additional information provided.
