It was reported that an omniwire was used in a coronary diagnostic procedure.Post normalization, the wire was unable to advance; therefore, it was removed from the patient to change the shape.Upon removal, approximately 6-7 cm of the distal portion of the wire was stretched.A new wire was used to complete the procedure.No patient injury reported.During the product return evaluation, the core wire was exposed resulting in a sharp edge.This product problem is being submitted due to a sharp edge observed.There is a potential for harm if the malfunction were to recur.
