Event Description
An attempt was made to use a non compliant (nc) euphora balloon catheter in a calcified lesion in the proximal diagonal branch.The device was inspected with no issues noted.Negative prep was performed with no issues.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously-deployed stent.Excessive force was not used during delivery.It was reported that a semi compliant (sc) euphora device was used to pre-dilated a calcified lesion but was unsuccessful.An attempt was then made to use the nc euphora device to inflate the lesion, however inflation issues were encountered as the balloon burst at 18atm.An attempt was made to remove the device but the balloon detached from the shaft.The balloon sheared while forcibly trying to be removed.A snare was used but was unsuccessful.A decision was made to use two resolute onyx devices, a 2.75x30mm and a 2.75 x12mm rx to ensure the entrapment of the sheared balloon.The patient was on a balloon pump in the intensive care unit (icu).No further injury was reported.
