Incident description: during cryo balloon ablation, a pop sound was heard when inflated balloon came on frezz (sp?).Deflated, removed balloon from the patient.Opened new balloon attached to umbilical cable.The same thing happened, with same error code: 50030, it said "try changing umbilical cable." when we did this, no problem.We continued with the procedure.The patient was stable when they left the procedure room.The procedure was completed with the following findings: findings: normal sinus rhythm at baseline with normal ah, hv, qrs and qt intervals with post ablation testing revealing absence of dual av node physiology.Successful pulmonary vein isolation using a cryo cath balloon of all 4 pulmonary veins for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.Successful right atrial flutter ablation at the cavotricuspid isthmus with creation of bidirectional block.
