Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a lesion in the left anterior descending (lad) artery.The 4.5x15mm nc trek rx balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was used for post dilatation after angiographic findings showed subacute thrombosis in the left main (lm)-lad stent and poor expansion of the lm tail.The guiding catheter and sheath got stuck when the sheath was retracted so the guiding catheter and sheath were withdrawn together.The balloon was simply withdrawn and the shaft was noted to be bent.There was no adverse patient effect and there was no clinically significant delay in the procedure.
