Event Description

It was reported that during an atrial fibrillation procedure, catheter spline detachment occurred.The target lesion was located in the left atrium.After verifying bilateral movement and proper spline deployment outside the patient, the intellamap orion¿ was inserted in usual fashion using the introducer tool.The left atrium was being mapped and the physician aggressively pulled the orion out of the body via the femoral vein through a long non-deflectable sheath with the orion fully deployed.The orion was inspected upon removal which showed partial spline detachment with no fragments or missing parts.A new orion was opened and the procedure was successfully completed with no patient complications.

Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by manufacturer - the device has a spline detached from the proximal end of the array.Moreover, evidence of adhesive was found at the array proximal end and inside the brown collar.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The most probable root cause is user/use error, as complaint report states that the orion was withdrawn into the sheath with the splines fully deployed.(b)(4).
