It was reported that a male patient (b)(6) kg) underwent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (afib) procedure with pentaray nav high-density mapping eco catheter and suffered cardiac tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis.During the mapping phase, a pericardial effusion was diagnosed via (ice) intracardiac electrocardiogram.A pericardiocentesis was performed by the physician.The amount of fluid removed was not provided.The caller stated that the physician thought the effusion was caused by the sheath (medtronic flex cath sheath) when going transseptal.The patient was stable at the time of the call.This event occurred after the use of the pentaray catheter.The patient¿s condition has improved.They were still at the hospital at the time of the additional information was provided (b)(6) 2020) but were in good condition.Recovery from pericardiocentesis will likely result in longer stay.Transseptal puncture performed with medtronic flex cath sheath and baylis nrg needle.No ablation was performed prior to effusion and thus there was no evidence of steam pop.The irrigation was on low setting.There were no error messages observed on biosense webster equipment during the procedure.Since the pentaray nav high-density mapping eco catheter was in use, we cannot exclude it and therefore are conservatively reporting this event under the pentaray nav high-density mapping eco catheter.
