Manufacturer Narrative

The device is not returning for evaluation.Investigation is not yet complete.A follow-up report will be submitted with all additional relevant information.

Event Description

It was reported that the patient was admitted with myocardial infarction.Angiography noted that the mid right coronary artery (rca) was 100% occluded with clot, and the rca ostium was 99% occluded.A non-abbott guide catheter extension was used.Stenting was performed using non-abbott stents.The 4.0 x 12 mm trek dilatation catheter was advanced for post dilatation of a non-abbott stent.The balloon was inflated without issue and was thought to be deflated without issue.An attempt was made to remove the trek dilatation catheter; however, it was noted that the balloon remained partially inflated and separated in the anatomy.It is unknown what caused the balloon separation; however, it was reported that during the procedure, when the guide catheter extension was removed, some of the non-abbott stent struts became flared.An attempt was made to remove the balloon; however, this was unsuccessful.The plan was made to possibly send the patient for surgical intervention.The patient was transferred to his room and was in stable condition.There was good blood flow around the separated balloon segment.The patient will undergo catheterization on (b)(6) 2021, and the decision will be made if additional intervention is required.No additional information was provided.
