Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a lesion in the mildly calcified, heavily tortuous, 90% stenosed mid left anterior descending coronary artery.A 2.75x33mm xience xpedition stent delivery system (sds) experienced resistance with the anatomy during advancement, and during inflation the stent moved slightly but remained within the target lesion.A same sized xience xpedition stent was implanted to treat the previous stent and successfully complete the procedure.There were no adverse patient sequelae and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no similar incidents from this lot.The investigation determined the reported difficulties and treatment appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure as it is likely the device interacted with the mildly calcified, heavily tortuous and 90% stenosed artery causing the reported difficulty to advance.Interaction/ manipulation of the device resulted in compromising the stent such that during inflation ultimately resulted in the reported unintended system motion (stent dislodged during inflation).The treatment appears to be related to the operational context of the procedure as a 2.75x33mm xience xpedition stent was implanted over the first stent, which was at least partially in the target lesion.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
