Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The patient's dob and weight are unknown.This information was not available from the facility.Foreign: (b)(6).The angiosculpt has not been returned by the facility, thus no returned product investigation was performed.Submission of this report does not, in itself, represent a conclusion by the manufacturer and/or authorized representative or the national competent authority that the content of this report is complete or accurate, that the medical device(s) listed failed in any manner and/or that the medical device(s) caused or contributed to an alleged death or deterioration in the state of the health of any person.
 
Event or Problem Description
The angiosculpt device was used in a severely calcified proximal rca.Prior to the angiosculpt, a rotablation device was used.The angiosculpt was inflated multiple times and during the 4th inflation at 16 atm for 12 seconds, the balloon burst.Upon removal, the device was caught in the patient¿s anatomy and unable to be removed.With much force applied, a portion of the balloon separated radially in the patient.The patient was in stable condition, but was transferred by helicopter to another hospital for bypass.This adverse event and product problem is being submitted because the balloon ruptured radially and required surgical intervention (bypass).
 
Event or Problem Description
Based on the device evaluation and additional information received, the device separated at the intermediate shaft and not a radial balloon separation as reported in the initial mdr.This adverse event and product problem is being submitted because the balloon ruptured and the intermediate shaft separated requiring surgical intervention (bypass).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h3: the angiosculpt catheter was returned with just the proximal portion.This includes hypotube, hypotube bond, a portion of the intermediate shaft, luer, and strain relief.Visual inspection found no damage to the proximal portion and measures approximately 117 cm.The distal portion of the catheter was not returned.This includes the distal tip, distal bond, balloon, scoring element, intermediate bond, transition tubing, rx port, proximal bond, and distal shaft.Overall catheter measurement is 137 cm which confirms that approximately 20 cm separated from the catheter.The reported balloon rupture could not be confirmed since the distal portion separated and not returned.Block h6: based on the device evaluation and complaint details, the catheter got caught on the severely calcified lesion and the degree of force applied by the user likely resulted in the shaft separation.Per the ifu, retained device components is listed as a possible adverse effects of the procedure.Additionally, component code #4721 (rod/shaft) was added to document the shaft separation.Submission of this report does not, in itself, represent a conclusion by the manufacturer and/or authorized representative or the national competent authority that the content of this report is complete or accurate, that the medical device(s) listed failed in any manner and/or that the medical device(s) caused or contributed to an alleged death or deterioration in the state of the health of any person.
