Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a de novo lesion located in the heavily calcified, heavily tortuous, distal right coronary artery.After pre-dilatation was performed the 4.0 x 38 mm xience xpedition stent delivery system (sds) was advanced; however, it did not cross due to the heavily calcified lesion.The proximal shaft of the sds separated during the failed attempts to cross.The sds was removed from the anatomy and a new xience xpedition of the same size was used successfully to complete the case.No adverse patient effects or clinically significant delay in the procedure were reported.No additional information was provided.

(b)(4).Evaluation summary: the device was returned for analysis.The shaft separation was able to be confirmed.The failure to advance could not be replicated in a testing environment as it was based on operational circumstances.Based on a visual and dimensional inspection of the returned device, there is no indication of a product deficiency.A review of the lot history record revealed no non-conformances that would have contributed to the reported event.A query/review of the complaint history of the reported lot did not indicate a manufacturing issue.Based on the reviewed information, no product deficiency was identified.
