Event or Problem Description
|
|
The patient was undergoing a coil embolization procedure in the basilar artery using penumbra smart coils (smart coils).During the procedure, two smart coils would not advance within the introducer sheaths and were stuck in their initial position.Therefore, the physician pulled the smart coils out from the backend of the introducer sheaths and backloaded the smart coils into the introducer sheaths.The procedure was completed using the same two smart coils.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
