Event Description
|
It was reported that the hcp performed surgery to remove the extension wire with a port plug from the incision site to connect to the new lead.They grabbed it by the port plug cap and not the extension wire connection area.The port plug was still tightened into the extension port, and the top of the plug separated from the post, which was left lodged in the extension.The clear/transparent portion of the port plug post could be removed, but the metal fixation ring remained lodged in the extension port.It could not be removed.A replacement extension had to be placed during the procedure.The environmental/external/patient factors that may have led or contributed to the issue were unknown.The surgery was extended to allow for the replacement of the extension wire.The issue was resolved and the patient outcome was "no injury".
