Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a lesion in the mildly tortuous right coronary artery (rca).The 1.2x12 mm trek balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was used in the rca and then after inflation it was noted that the bdc could not move back on the guide wire so the bdc was removed.Another 2.0x15 mm mini trek bdc was used in the rca and after inflation it was noted the bdc could not move back on the guide wire so another bdc was used to complete the procedure.There were no issues with inflation or deflation with either balloon.There were no adverse patient effects and there was no reported clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
