Event Description
|
As reported, there was resistance encountered while attempting to deliver a 55cm optease retrievable vena cava filter through the included catheter sheath introducer (csi) and the outer sheath of the csi was punctured by the filter during attempted deployment.The filter and csi were easily removed together as a unit, and an unknown filter, along with an unknown sheath were used as a replacement to complete the procedure.There were no reported injuries or adverse events to the patient.The filter was being implanted due to acute deep vein thrombosis (dvt) resulting in swelling of the lower limbs, which was identified via computed tomography (ct).The device was stored and prepped per the instructions for use (ifu).A femoral approach was made with the included csi and the vessel dilator was kept in the csi until the desired deployment location was reached.The filter was never in an acute bend during delivery and the sheath was not kinked.The device will be returned for evaluation.
