Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a 90% stenosed lesion in the mid left anterior descending (mlad) artery with mild calcification and mild tortuosity.For pre-dilatation, the 2.50x8mm nc trek balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was advanced to the target lesion and the balloon was inflated; however, the balloon ruptured during the first inflation at 9 atmospheres (atm) after 10 seconds.Therefore, the bdc was removed from the patient.There was no adverse patient effect and no clinically significant delay reported in the procedure.Prior to use, the bdc was soaked in saline and prepped (air aspiration) outside the anatomy.There was no resistance noted when removing the protective sheath.A same size non-abbott bdc was used to continue the procedure.No additional information was provided.
