|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a lesion located in the left circumflex artery that was moderately calcified, heavily tortuous and 90% stenosed.The nc trek balloon was advanced to the lesion and inflated to 14 atmospheres (atm) for 5 seconds once, when the pressure was noted to decrease.There was some delay during deflation, but the balloon had hardly inflated, so there was no issue during removal of the balloon.Once outside the anatomy, the balloon was tested and fluid leakage from the balloon was noted.There was no adverse patient effect or clinically significant delay.A non-abbott balloon was used to complete the procedure.No additional information was provided.
