Event Description
|
It was reported that the physician used a hawkone h1-m device with a non-medtronic 6fr sheath and a non-medtronic 0.014 guidewire for treatment of a 60mm calcified 70% stenotic lesion in the patient¿s left proximal superficial femoral artery (sfa) of diameter 5mm.Slight tortuosity and slight calcification were reported.The ifu was followed and the device was prepped without issue.The vessel was not pre-dilated.No resistance was felt when advancing the device to the lesion.It was reported that the tip detached distal to the cutter window.The sheath was cut to remove the tip.A second sheath was placed in the vessel.Balloon angioplasty was performed to complete the procedure.No patient injury was reported.

Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluation the hawkone was removed from the packaging and inspected.It was observed the distal assembly was fractured apart.A radial fracture was observed between the anchor pockets and proximal end of the coiled segment of the housing.The distal fractured off piece showed the proximal end of the tecothane with a smooth edge where it detached from the cutter window housing.The approximate length of the distal segment is 6cm.The platinum iridium coils within the tecothane were stretched out proximally.Approximately 0.2cm of the coil was stretched past the tecothane.Biological debris was observed within the housing id.It should be noted, no zipper tearing to the guidewire tubing was observed.The proximal end of the separation showed a straight radial fracture distal to the anchor pockets, where the coiled segment initiates.The drive shaft was exposed outside of the cutter window with the cutter assembly attached approximately 2.6cm.Functional testing: a 0.014" gw from the lab was loaded the housing gw lumen.No zipper tearing to the tubing was noted as the distal assembly was arched.It should be noted the proximal end of the gw tubing showed bending/buckling.No tear was observed.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
