Pre-procedure image quality was poor.Intravascular lithotripsy was performed in the superficial femoral artery (sfa), then multiple short treatments on low, medium, and high speed were performed using a diamondback 360 peripheral orbital atherectomy device (oad) in the common femoral artery and the sfa.During the last treatment, the oad had stopped turning on.The oad was powered on again, leds blinked and the oad again turned off.Following the last treatment, no flow was observed.Cardene and nitroglycerine were administered and flow improved but remained slow, and embolization occurred in the distal posterior tibial.Angioplasty balloons were used to improve flow, however the issue persisted.The patient was hospitalized with a heparin drip.Flow was restored.The patient was brought back to check the area with doppler, and the foot was warm with observable pulses.As the patient experienced poor kidney health, imaging was kept to a minimum throughout the procedure.In the opinion of the physician, multiple treatments led to the embolization.Future treatment was being planned.

The oad was returned to csi for evaluation.Review of the diagnostic analysis identified a motor hardware fault event.Diagnostic analysis confirmed a stall event.The root cause of the event could not be conclusively determined.The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.Csi id: (b)(4).
