Event or Problem Description
|
|
The treatment was performed on two serial lesions in the mid left anterior descending (lad) artery.Both lesions were 99% stenosed and severely calcified with vessel size of 3 mm.During proximal treatment of the second lesion which was distal to the first lesion in a tortuous location, the diamondback 360 coronary orbital atherectomy device (oad) stalled due to heavy and severe calcification of the distal lesion with some tortuosity and the crown was stuck in the severely calcified lesion.Glide assist was turned on in an attempt to move the crown out of the lesion.When low speed was turned on, the crown could not move with advancement of the crown advancer knob.A second non-csi/non-abbott guidewire was used to advance past the crown to dilate with a small rx semi-compliant balloon which was unsuccessful.The saline sheath and driveshaft were cut from the oad in an attempt to use as a microcatheter over the driveshaft and crown.The sheath was unable to advance on the driveshaft.Second right femoral access was obtained to use a "ping pong" method by disengaging the radial guide catheter from the left main artery and plant it in the aorta and place a femoral guide catheter in the left main artery to advance another non-csi/non-abbott guidewire past the crown in attempt to dilate with a non-csi/non-abbott takeru balloon.This was also unsuccessful.A 6f non-csi/non-abbott was used on the radial access but was not able to remove the oad due to resistance while in the lad.During a last attempt, another non-csi/non-abbott catheter was used which successfully removed the crown and viperwire.The crown, guidewire and driveshaft were all intact and the patient tolerated the procedure.The patient's vital signs were stable, and the patient was referred to cardiac surgery for coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg) because this was patient's second or third procedure in the catheterization laboratory to attempt to open up the calcified arteries.The patient had declined the surgery previously and since atherectomy was unsuccessful, cabg was opted.

The oad was returned for analysis.Diagnostic analysis identified a stall event after four spins on low speed during the procedure.The reported event of stall was confirmed, however, the root cause of the stall event was unable to be determined.There was overloading damage at the lap weld which is likely a result of the stall event and is not considered a contributing factor in the reported events.There was no damage or abnormalities identified with the driveshaft or handle assembly that would have contributed to these reported events.The crown diameter was measured and met specification.The reported event of stuck in vessel and crown not moving when knob was advanced was not confirmed.The device history record for this oad lot number has been reviewed.No issues or discrepancies were noted during this review that would have contributed to the reported event.The device met material, assembly, and quality control requirements.Csi id: (b)(6).
