Event Description
|
It was reported that guidewire entrapment and catheter fracture occurred.The target lesion was located in a complete total occlusion region proximal to the moderately calcified left superficial femoral artery.A 2.4mm jetstream xc atherectomy catheter and non-bsc filterwire were selected for the atherectomy procedure.During the procedure, the physician reported hearing a binding noise that indicated strain on the device.The physician continued operating slowly as it was suspected the device was performing in the complete total occlusion region.The jetstream xc atherectomy catheter then stopped working.When the physician checked the placement of the sheath, it was noted that the sheath had kicked out.The catheter was also entrapped on the guidewire.It was noted that there was a fracture in the middle of the catheter which occurred prior to removal from the body.The catheter and filterwire were remove together.The procedure was completed with a balloon angioplasty using a non-boston scientific guidewire and a 6mm x 200mm x 135cm charger balloon catheter.There were no patient complications reported.
