Event Description
|
During removal of the diamondback peripheral exchangeable orbital atherectomy device (oad) following a complex critical limb ischemia procedure, resistance was felt when the device entered the catheter to cross the aorta.The device was pulled, and the tip of the oad fractured.The handle of the oad was removed from the patient and the procedure was continued.When the wire was removed, the oad tip fragment dislodged in the right femoral artery.The fragment was secured to the vessel wall using a stent.The patient was in stable condition following the procedure.

Manufacturer Narrative

The reported oad was returned to csi for analysis.A visual examination confirmed that the driveshaft was fractured at the distal edge of the crown.Scanning electron microscopy was performed but due to secondary damage could not identify the fractography of the driveshaft fracture faces.It is hypothesized that the driveshaft underwent excessive tensile forces near the crown during removal from the vessel.The fractured filars were extending distally from the crown indicating that the filars were pulled to failure, however the exact root cause of the fracture is undetermined.At the conclusion of the device analysis investigation, the reported fracture was confirmed.The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements prior to distribution.Csi id: (b)(4).
