Event Description

One resolute onyx coronary drug eluting stent was attempted to be used to treat a mildly tortuous, mildly calcified lesion with 95% stenosis in the mid circumflex (cx) artery.The device was inspected prior to use with no issues noted.Negative prep was performedwith no issues noted.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was not encountered when advancing the device and excessive force was not used. it was reported that inflation difficulties occurred during stent deployment.10 atm of pressure was applied through the indeflator but it was observed on the angiogram that the balloon had not inflated.Contrast was removed from the balloon, another negative prep was performed and 10 atm of pressure applied again but the balloon still did not inflate.The resolute onyx device was removed from the patient and inspected with no issues found on the shaft or the balloon.The procedure was then successfully completed using a different resolute onyx stent and the same indeflator.No patient injury reported.

Product analysis summary: kink evident on the hypotube.Blood visible in the balloon.The device was placed in the waterbath to disperse the blood in the balloon in order to aid inflation.Upon inflation, liquid was observed exiting the distal tip, suggesting a leak on the inner shaft.The outer shaft was removed.Upon visual inspection, a tear was observed on the inner shaft proximal to the proximal inner shaft markerband.The inner shaft material was protruding outwards at the leak site in a proximal direction.The inner shaft material was jagged and uneven at the tear site.No deformation evident to the distal tip.The inner lumen patency was verified with a 0.015 inch mandrel.No deformation evident to the remainder of the device.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
