Event Description
|
An attempt was made to use one nc euphora coronary balloon catheter to treat a mildly tortuous, severely calcified lesion with 70% stenosis in the mid left anterior descending (lad) artery.The device was inspected with no issues.Negative prep was performed with no issues.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was not encountered when advancing the device.Excessive force was not used.The device was not kinked and re-straightened during use.It was reported that a balloon rupture occurred during balloon inflation.Right radial access was obtained.A 3.5 ebu launcher device was engaged in the left main (lm).Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (ptca) was performed with a 2.75mm euphora rx balloon to the proximal lad.A 2.75x34mm onyx frontier stent was then delivered and deployed in the proximal/mid lad.The nc euphora balloon was inflated in the deployed stent but ruptured and deflated.The balloon had been inflated to 10 atm for 15 seconds, 14 atm for 20 seconds and 18 atm for 20 seconds prior to the rupture.The device was not moved or repositioned while inflated.The balloon deflated upon rupture and could not be advanced or withdrawn.An effort was made to advance a non-medtronic guide extension catheter over the balloon shaft, but this was unsuccessful as the distal end of the balloon catheter broke off and remained in the lad.The balloon was entrapped in the onyx frontier stent.Resistance was noted during attempt to withdrawal the device.Excessive force was not used.Femoral access was obtained and multiple wires and over the wire (otw) balloons were attempted to cross beside the balloon in an effort to retrieve or crush it; however, these efforts were unsuccessful.St depressions were noted on the monitor.There was thrombus formation around the balloon and angiography demonstrated total occlusion at the side of the balloon at the lad.The patient became very uncomfortable and was intubated.Hemodynamics became fragile.There were two short ventricular fibrillation runs with good response to defibrillation.A non-medtronic left ventricular assist device was placed via right cfa access.The patient was stabilized and sedated on propofol.Amiodarone was started.The patient was sent to surgery to have the balloon material and radiopaque markers removed via salvage coronary artery bypass graft surgery (cabg).All the balloon fragments were removed during surgery.The patient is alive and still in the hospital.It was later reported that the patient expired.The cause of death was cardiogenic shock, as a consequence of the coronary artery bypass graft (cabg)/acute myocardial infarction (ami) caused by the balloon rupture.Other medtronic devices used during the procedure include a 6f 4ebu launcher, 6f al launcher, 2.75x25mm euphora, 1.25x10mm sprinter legend x 2, 2.0x12mm sprinter otw.There was no other complaint with the other medtronic devices used during the procedure.
