Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a lesion in the subclavian artery with 95% stenosis and calcification.Access site was the forearm.The omnilink elite stent delivery system (sds) had resistance at the access site and failed to cross due to the anatomy.The stent came off the balloon due to the sheath being frayed from the calcium.The stent was retrieved after a balloon was advanced past the stent, expanded the balloon then pulled back and grabbed the dislodged stent with hemostats.Although there was a delay in the procedure, there was no adverse patient effect, therefore, the delay did not result in patient harm.The procedure was aborted and the patient will return for the treatment.No additional information was provided.
