Event Description
|
During the first treatment with a diamondback pluto coronary orbital atherectomy device (oad) in the left circumflex artery (lcx), the crown became stuck in the vessel.Glideassist was activated, but the oad remained stuck in the vessel.The guide wire was pulled back through the device during the attempts to free the oad.The oad was then pulled, and the driveshaft fractured on the proximal side of the crown.Several unsuccessful attempts to snare the fragment were made.Eventually, a wire was advanced in the subintimal plane, and serial balloon inflations were performed to open a channel, thereby causing a dissection.Stents were deployed to entrap the fragment against the vessel wall.Post procedure imaging showed the vessel was open with brisk flow.The patient was admitted to the icu for recovery.

Manufacturer Narrative

Device analysis conclusion: the device was received at csi for analysis.Visual examination showed that the driveshaft filars were deformed, and a fracture was present.A distal portion of the driveshaft was not returned, which is consistent with details reported to csi.Scanning electron microscopy analysis of the driveshaft fracture showed evidence of torsion and stretching.It is hypothesized that the driveshaft fractured due to tensile forces that occurred during removal attempts by the physician.This is also consistent with details reported to csi.The reported fracture was confirmed through analysis, though the exact root cause of the fracture could not be determined.The cause of the device reportedly becoming stuck could not be determined through analysis.The reported dissection also could not be confirmed through analysis.The device history record for this device lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event, and the device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements prior to distribution.Csi id: (b)(4).
