Event Description
|
It was reported that during the implant procedure after positioning this right ventricular (rv) lead, low amplitude was noted from the pacemaker system analyzer (psa).The physician attempted to exchange the psa and reposition the rv lead, but low amplitudes and sometimes loss of sensing were still noted.The physician exchanged the rv lead to resolve the event and no adverse patient effects were reported.The rv lead is expected for analysis, but has not yet been received.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
Upon receipt at our post market quality assurance laboratory, a thorough evaluation of the lead was performed.Testing was completed to assess lead electrical performance and inner/outer insulation integrity.Measurements throughout these tests were within normal limits.Microscopic inspections of the terminal pin assembly, lead body, and electrode tip found no anomalies.Laboratory testing was unable to reproduce the reported clinical observations and detailed analysis did not reveal any abnormalities.Laboratory analysis did not identify any lead characteristics that would have caused or contributed to the reported clinical observations.
