Event Description
|
It was reported that a patient underwent an ablation procedure with a c3 interface cable where noise was experienced on all electrocardiogram (ecg) leads.During the procedure, interference was observed on all ecg leads, both body surface and intracardiac, for both the carto 3 and recording systems.No other ecgs were available to monitor the patient¿s heart rhythm.The catheter and catheter cable were both replaced, and the issue was resolved.No patient consequences were reported.The inability to monitor the patient¿s heart rhythm while devices are intracardiac can lead to undetected rhythms that could be life threatening.As a result, this event is mdr reportable.The actual awareness date for the initial 3500a submission on this complaint is 5/6/2017, as that is when the information that made this event mdr reportable was obtained from the affiliate.
