Event Description

It was reported that the procedure was cancelled.A 2.00mm rotapro was selected for use.During the procedure, 3 rotapro advancers were used.First, a 1.5mm rotapro was used to ablate the lesion without any problem.Second, a 2.0mm rotapro was checked outside the body, but an abnormal sound was noticed, and red stall was displayed upon advancing inside the patient in dynaglide mode; the speed did not increase.Therefore, the rotawire and advancer were replaced.The third 2.0mm rotapro was checked but has the same issue with the second one, rota was then stopped.

Manufacturer Narrative

E1.Initial reporter address 1: (b)(6).Device evaluated by manufacturer: the device was returned for analysis.The advancer, handshake connections, sheath, coil, burr and annulus were visually examined.Inspection of the device found no damages or defects.Functional testing was performed by attempting to rotate the drive shaft, and the drive shaft was able to be rotated.When the rotapro advancer was connected to the rotapro console control system and the knob switch (ablation button) was pressed, the device stalled and would not run.In order to determine the cause for the device stall, destructive testing was performed, in which the advancer was dismantled, and the interior components were inspected for damages or defects.During destructive testing, it was identified that the turbine was corroded, indicating the presence of dried saline within the device.It was considered likely that the presence of dried saline interfered with the devices ability to rotate, leading to a device stall.Product analysis could not confirm the reported noise and rotation issues, but was able to confirm he reported stall as the turbine was corroded, causing a device stall by inhibiting the rotation of the advancer.
