On (b)(6) 2020, a (b)(6) patient with the following patent ductus arteriosus(pda) dimensions of: length 12mm and diameter of 3.1mm underwent pda closure.After angiogram measurements, which were consistent with tte measurements, a 5/4 amplatzer piccolo occluder was prepped and delivered intraductal to the pda.Echo showed some mild residual shunting around the device, and also the pa disk appeared to be just outside of the pa ampule, with doppler showing some flow restriction.The 5/4 device was recaptured and repositioned, with the same result.The 5/4 device was never released, and was recaptured and removed.A 5/2 amplatzer piccolo occluder was then delivered to the defect with the same results as the 5/4 device.The device was never released, it was removed and a mvp plug was deployed with no residual shunting or pa impingement.The patient remained stable throughout the procedure and with the exchanging of several devices, the procedure was extended significantly.The overall procedure time was just over 2 hours.The patient is currently recovering.
