Event or Problem Description
A lead extraction procedure commenced to remove a right atrial (ra) and a right ventricular (rv) lead due to bacteremia/cied system/pocket infection.Spectranetics lead locking devices (llds) were inserted into each lead to provide traction.The physician began by attempting extraction of the ra lead using a spectranetics 12f glidelight laser sheath, and progress stalled at the innominate vein.The glidelight''s outer sheath was added, stalling at the superior vena cava (svc) junction, with lead on lead binding noted.The physician switched efforts to the rv lead.Using the 12f glidelight with the outer sheath, progress stalled at the svc junction.The physician then used a cook medical 10f byrd dilator sheath.The lld came out of the rv lead, and a new lld was inserted.Removal efforts focused back on the ra lead.Using the byrd device, the lead binding was stripped off at the svc junction, and the tip of the ra lead released and was removed.The patient''s blood pressure drifted downward, and a pericardial effusion was detected by transesophageal echocardiography (tee).Rescue efforts began, including pericardiocentesis (unsuccessful because blood had clotted), percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (pcps), cardiac massage, and sternotomy.A right atrial appendage (raa) perforation was discovered and successfully repaired using suture.After the patient''s chest was closed, attempt to remove the rv lead percutaneously was made, first using a 14f glidelight, then the 14f glidelight with its outer sheath (without lasing), which reached the rv lead''s ring electrode.Using traction from the lld, the rv lead tip released, and the lead was removed without complications.The patient survived the procedure.This report captures the lld providing traction to the ra lead when the perforation occurred, requiring intervention.There was no alleged malfunction of the lld within the ra lead in use during the procedure.
