Event Description
|
It was reported that a proximal filter dislodgement occurred.A sentinel cerebral protection system (cps) was used during a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (tavi) procedure.The vessels were mildly tortuous and there was no significant calcium in the right subclavian artery.The activated clotting time of the patient was over 250 seconds before insertion of the sentinel cps.An introducer sheath was placed into the radial artery and the sentinel cps was advanced and positioned with the proximal filter into brachiocephalic artery.The activated clotting time of the patient remained over 250 seconds after insertion of the sentinel cps.The proximal filter was successfully deployed into the brachiocephalic artery.Upon cannulating to the left common carotid artery with the articulating distal sheath, the proximal filter dislodged from the brachiocephalic artery in an open state.The proximal filter was recaptured and repositioned in the brachiocephalic artery.However, the proximal filter slider exhibited stiffness, and the proximal filter would not open.The sentinel cps was successfully retrieved, and the procedure was completed without a sentinel cps in place.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, relaxed articulating distal sheath (ads), and unsheathed distal filter.A functional test was performed, which found that the proximal filter could be successfully deployed using the proximal filter slider (#1).A flow test was successfully performed through the front handle flush port, rear handle flush port, and distal filter slider flush port.
