Event Description
|
It was reported that an inability to resheath the distal filter prior to removal occurred.A sentinel cerebral protection system (cps) was selected for use during a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (tavi) procedure.The radial artery was calcified.An introducer sheath was placed into the radial artery and the sentinel cps was advanced.The proximal filter of the sentinel cps was deployed in brachiocephalic artery and the distal filter was deployed in the left common carotid artery.Upon completion of the tavi procedure, the distal filter could not be recaptured into the catheter.The distal filter hypotube was kinked, and the plastic hub of the distal filter slider was broken.The proximal filter was then successfully recaptured, and the distal filter was removed from the patient in an open state.No patient complications were reported.

Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr.: the sentinel cps was returned to boston scientific (bsc) and was analyzed by a bsc quality engineer.Visual analysis revealed a sheathed proximal filter, flexed articulating distal sheath, slightly unsheathed distal filter, and a kinked distal filter slider (#3).No additional packaging was returned for analysis.A functional test was performed and found that the distal filter could not be sheathed or unsheathed using the distal filter slider (#3).This inability to sheathe or unsheathe the distal filter was due to the kink in the distal filter slider (#3).
