Event Description
|
It was reporter that an unknown patient underwent an ischemic ventricular tachycardia (idvt) ablation procedure with a carto 3 rmt system.There was a map shift and the case was canceled.The carto 3 didn¿t give any error message.As the odosey froze twice and the physician wasn¿t able to use steriotaxis he decided to ablate manually.Th bwi representative pulled up the magnet ¿ control + p ¿ to see where his ablation catheter was, and as he was coming up it was noticed that all patches have moved a noticeable amount.When they brought the location pads everything was like it was at the beginning of the case.Before the physician decided to ablate manually after the first time that they rebooted the odosey, when the physician was moving the catheter it was noticed the catheter looked like it was outside the map.The bwi representative asked him if he could check and make sure everything was okay in ice and everything was okay so we just started to get go from the mapping catheter.The medical team just assumed they didn¿t get go the first time around that area.But the second time when they actually realized map was shifted he didn¿t ablate since it was unsafe and if he mapped again he still wasn¿t sure where he ablated before.The approximate difference in catheter location before and after map shift was a big difference, maybe 1-2 inches.The physician did not perform cardioversion prior to the map shift and the patient did not move before detecting the shift.The patient was under general anesthesia for about 3 hours.A transseptal puncture was performed prior to the case cancellation.He canceled because he didn't want to cause harm to the patient.The patient did not require extended hospitalization due to a medical condition caused by procedure cancellation.No service needed.Map shift is mdr-reportable.
