Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the left coronary circumflex (lcx).Before the procedure, it was noted that the patient had previously undergone a procedure in the same region.A 3.50 x 08 mm rx vision stent delivery system (sds) was prepped per the instructions for use and the stent was confirmed to be on the balloon prior to inserting the sds into the patient anatomy.The sds was advanced to the target lesion; however, the sds failed to cross the lesion.The sds was removed and it was noted that the stent was dislodged from the balloon.The stent could not be seen through echocardiography; therefore, a new 3.0 x 08mm unspecified stent was used and successfully implanted to the target lesion.Then, an unspecified balloon was inserted and inflated and dragged up the guide wire in an attempt to retrieve the dislodged stent; however, the stent was not retrieved.A ct scan was performed but the stent could not be seen in the anatomy.The procedure ended at this point.No additional treatment was performed.There was no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
