Event or Problem Description
A physician was attempting to use a sliverhawk atherectomy device for the treatment of a plaque lesion in the proximal region in the common iliac artery.The device was prepped as per the ifu with no issues identified. the device was advanced over an.014 wire with resistance through a 6fr destination contralateral sheath.The resistance became more severe while advancing once the device came out the distal end of the sheath, and wire wrap occurred, causing the wire to loop.Attempts were made by the physician to correct the wire loop and unwrap the device around the wire, without success.Attempts were then made to remove the device safely without losing wire and sheath access.Due to the severity of wire wrap and wire buckling, the device, wire, and sheath were all removed from the right cfa access site, without any foreign bodies left in the patient.Manual pressure was held successfully to the access site until adequate hemostasis was achieved.The physician then completed the procedure by accessing the left cfa in antegrade approach.When the device was returned to the manufacturing facility it was noted that the device was damaged.
