Delay in reporting due to just aware of event with all details.A (b)(6) male to hospital for mi and requiring intervention.Had an angiogram with stent placement.During the procedure the cardiologist was going to advance a xience stent into the right coronary artery.The stent stopped in the mid segment and was unable to advance it beyond that point due to the presence of heavy calcification and tortuosity.The stent catheter was removed to find that the stent was no longer on the catheter.Md looked and found the stent located in the proximal segment of the rca and it is not deployed.Md worked and was able to get stent over this stent to secure stent from migration.Good blood flow following this stent placement.It is reported that the balloon stent device of this product was reported and turned over to the sales representative of the company back in (b)(6) so they could report this event to the fda.The pt discharged home a few days later.
