Event or Problem Description
|
|
During preparation for a lead extraction procedure, a spectranetics 12f glidelight laser sheath was calibrated for use.However, the physician then realized that a portion of the device's sheath near the tip was compromised, as it was reported that laser light was showing through.It was reported that the device was never used in the patient and was not kinked.The philips representative present in the procedure placed the glidelight device in a biohazard bag for return to the manufacturer for evaluation.Another 12f glidelight device was opened and the procedure was performed successfully with no reported patient harm.This event is being reported due to the potential for exposure to manufacturing materials as well as inadvertent exposure to laser energy/radiation.The manufacturer is anticipating return of the device for evaluation, but has not received it at this time.
