Event Description
|
As reported, during a cystoscopy procedure with urethral dilation and insertion of cbd, a cook sphere inflation device gauge did not function as intended, resulting in rupture of a cook urethral dilation balloon catheter.Reportedly, another manufacturer's safety guide wire was inserted into the body and the inflation device syringe was filled with contrast.The urethral balloon was connected to the inflation device, and the balloon was inserted over the wire.The balloon was inflated with the complaint device; however the gauge was reportedly not accurate and caused the balloon to rupture in the body.A "pop" was heard and the patient complained of slight pain at the time of rupture.Per the reporter, as the balloon was inflated, the needle of the gauge did move "a little bit", but did not increase as the balloon was inflated.The patient did not suffer any injury resulting from the event.The procedure was aborted; however, no further treatment was required, as the urethra had been dilated.The patient was discharged to home.There has been no report that any part of the device remained in the patient's body, that the patient required any additional procedures, or that the patient experienced any adverse effects due to this event.
