Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that during an implant procedure, the coronary sinus was accessed with two delivery catheters and there was an attempt to place a left ventricular (lv) lead in several different branches with no success.It was noted that there was intermittent capture at high outputs.It was decided to do an occluded venogram fluoroscopy save.The lv lead was placed in two other branches as well and there was no capture.The decision was made to abort the case as the patient¿s blood pressure was getting low and there were no branches that were usable.The two delivery catheters and lv lead were removed from the patient.The patient then complained of difficulty breathing.The physician called for an ultrasound machine and then a code.The patient experienced a pericardial effusion and a pericardiocentesis procedure was performed with no complications.It was noted that the existing leads were never disconnected, and the existing implantable pulse generator (ipg) pacing mode was changed.No further patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.
