It was reported that the device became stuck on the wire.A 2.1mm jetstream xc catheter and non-bsc filter guidewire were selected for use in an atherectomy procedure.Near the end of treatment in the first treatment location, the device became stuck on the wire.The physician was able to remove the device from the wire but noted that the wire was sticky which prevented the device from moving smoothly.It was thought that the coating of the wire may have come off, causing the device to become stuck.The wire was removed and replaced with a new wire.A new jetstream device, same model, was selected for use to resume treatment.The procedure was finished without any complications, and no adverse patient effects were reported.The procedure ended well.
