Event Description
|
It was reported that the device was unable to be resheathed.The patient's anatomy was tortuous.Radial access was gained and a sentinel cerebral protection system was advanced.The proximal filter was deployed, however, there was difficulty in cannulating the left subclavian artery with the distal filter.They physicians decided to remove the device and upon removal the sentinel system became stuck outside the introducer sheath.It appeared that the proximal filter was not fully retracted.The sentinel system handle was not engaging with the distal end of the device.The sentinel system, introducer sheath and guidewire were removed together.Once removed from the patient, it was noted that the proximal filter was torn.There were no patient complications and the patient status was fine.

D10 device available for evaluation, returned to manufacturer date - updated h3 device returned to mfr - updated h3 device evaluated by manufacturer: the sentinel device was returned with an unidentified guidewire (not inside the sentinel).The distal filter slider was bent.The outer sheath transition tube was kinked.There were multiple kinks and bents throughout the whole outer sheath length.An introducer sheath was returned stuck on the device and appeared to have been buckled at some point.The tip was not returned.The distal filter membrane was detached from the tip of the tri-layer.The tri-layer was elongated, pinched and twisted.The articulating distal sheath (ads) was flexed and pinched; and felt "bumpy".The outer sheath tip was buckled and beginning to split.The proximal filter was stuck in the outer sheath tip.No inner member damages were visible under the rear handle shells.Flushing was performed through the introducer sheath flush port and removal was attempted, however once it got to the tip it got stuck again.The introducer sheath was cut in order to release the sentinel device; the overall condition of the sentinel device was not altered by the cutting of the introducer sheath.Microscopic inspection of the kinks and damages was taken; wear marks, twisting, pinches and break locations were confirmed.X-ray inspection revealed multiple kinks and bents, matching the location of those in the outer sheath.There was no visible proximal filter damages.The distal filter frame appeared to be kinked.The distal filter coupler was unraveled.The ads damage was confirmed.Due to the condition in which the device was received, no functional tests could be performed.
