Event Description

It was reported that the patient presented with non-st-elevation myocardial infarction (nstemi).The procedure was to treat a lesion in the proximal left anterior descending artery with 70% stenosis.The lesion was predilated using a 3.5x15mm non-abbott balloon catheter.A 3.5x18mm absorb gt1 rx scaffold delivery system (sds) was implanted without issue.Post dilatation was performed using an unspecified 3.75x15 non-compliant (nc) balloon catheter that was inflated to nominal pressure.During the procedure the physician was working on a different lesion.The patient became symptomatic with a blood pressure drop and trouble breathing.The patient was intubated to help with breathing and given heparin to properly coagulate.The physician noted the area around the scaffold was cloudy due to thrombosis.An unspecified nc balloon catheter was used to successfully treat the thrombosis.The patient is still hospitalized.No additional information was provided.
