Event Description
|
It was reported that during a lead extraction procedure to remove two active pacing leads (ra and rv) along with 2 inactive (capped) pacing leads (ra and rv) the patient experienced a perforation to the svc and the ra wall.The active leads were removed successfully and without complication.The capped ra lead was prepped with a lead locking device and removal was attempted with a tightrail device.When traction force was applied to the lead, the lead was detached from the cardiac wall.Upon detachment, the patient blood pressure dropped, and a tear to the ra wall was identified.The lead and tightrail device were removed from the patient, at which point a tear in the superior vena cava (svc) was also identified.A bridge rescue device was used in attempts to rescue the patient, but was unsuccessful.The patient did not survive this intervention.

B2): outcomes now reflected as "required intervention" instead of "death" (captured in the initial mdr).G3): manufacturer became aware of the need for supplemental correction mdr on 03 aug 2021.H1): type of reportable event corrected to "serious injury".H3): the device was discarded, thus no investigation could be completed.H6): heic code 1802 not applicable for this report; code 2513 remains applicable for this event.Postmarket surveillance performed a record review and discovered that three mdr''s (1721279-2017-00069, 1721279-2017-00076, and 1721279-2017-00077) were submitted for "death" for the same patient.This duplicated the patient's death, which trended more deaths than actually occurred.This supplemental mdr is being submitted to change "death" to "injury", accurately reflecting the event and avoiding "death" duplication.Mdr #1721279-2017-00069 will remain unchanged.
