Description of what occurred intra-procedurally, found high-grade distal left main into ostial lcx stenosis, treated with rotational atherectomy, pci and stent of the left main into lcx.Complicated by wire perforation and small pericardial effusion, treated with balloon tamponade.While balloon was up, patient became hypotensive and eventually pea arrest requiring chest compressions.Pericardial drain placed empirically without improvement, then impella placed but there was difficulty inserting impella due to severe iliac disease, treated with balloon angioplasty and eventual impella placement, however during this time had vf refractory to shock.Another drain was placed during rounds of cpr but was actually placed in lv.Access of r femoral was not possible due to chronic occlusion, so r brachial access obtained.Angiography revealed thrombosed left main, opened into lad but could not open lcx.Temp pacer placed due to intermittent sinus with block/vt/vf.After discussion with family, decided to withdraw care.
