07-feb-2024 updated description.Between (b)(6)2023, the patient underwent different interventions during which she received a semi-permanent va ecmo device.On 06-jan-2024 an intervention was planned to remove the va ecmo equipment from the patient during which the complaint pk papyrus covered stent system would be used for assisting the closure of the access point to the left profunda artery.The pk papyrus was attempted to be placed in left profunda and became dislodged upon entry in the left brachial artery.Stent was retrieved with a snare without complication.The sheath in the left profunda was left sutured in place at the end of the intervention.The affected pk papyrus stent system was not returned to biotronik and could therefore not be subjected to a technical investigation.Images of the case such as angiographies could also not be obtained.The provided clinical information (pk papyrus device registration form, cathlab report) and the production documentation were reviewed to establish whether a device deficiency contributed to this event.Review of the production documentation confirmed that the device was manufactured according to specifications and fulfilled all the requirements of in-process and final inspection.Based on the provided documentation and the conducted review no manufacturing related root cause could be identified.Pk papyrus is indicated for the treatment of acute perforations of native coronary arteries and coronary bypass grafts in vessels 2.5 to 5.0 mm in diameter.As such, this device is typically used in emergent response to a life-threatening adverse procedural event unrelated to use of the pk papyrus.
