Event Description
|
It was reported that the right ventricular (rv) lead had a confirmed fracture and was exhibiting undefined high pacing impedance values and no capture.An x-ray confirmed a clavicle crush and broken rv lead.The rv lead was partially explanted.The physician noted that the lead broke while extracting and the coil portion remains in the body/heart.The right atrial (ra) lead had insulation damage and an insulation clavicle/rib crush observed on x-ray.The ra lead was explanted.No patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.

Product event summary: the lead was not returned for analysis, however, performance data collected from the device was received and analyzed.Analysis of the device memory indicated the impedance of the right ventricular pacing lead was beyond the expected upper range.Analysis of the device memory indicated the criteria for the right ventricular lead integrity alert were met.Analysis of the device memory indicated pacing capture threshold in the right ventricle was elevated.Analysis of the device memory indicated oversensing due to non-physiologic signals/sensing integrity counter.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.

Product event summary: the proximal portion of the lead was returned, so analysis is limited to that portion only.Analysis consisted of unaided and aided visual inspection, and observation for set screw marks and their location on the connector pin.Electrical functionality was assessed by performing continuity testing of the distal (pacing), proximal (sense), and right ventricular defibrillation conductors.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.
