Event or Problem Description

It was reported that on (b)(6) 2024, a 25mm amplatzer pfo occluder was chosen for implant using a 9f amplatzer trevisio intravascular delivery system.During procedure, when they pulled out the right disk in the right atrium of the heart, the occluder took a donut shape.The operator withdrawn the occluder from the sheath, rinsed it and tried to implant it again, but the occluder took the shape of a donut again.The deformed device was never released from the delivery cable while inside the patient.There was no report of any interaction with cardiac structures during deployment and no report of any angulation/kink noticed with the delivery system.A new 25mm amplatzer pfo occluder was chosen.The patient remained hemodynamically stable throughout the procedure.There was no clinically significant delay in procedure and no adverse patient effects.The patient was reported stable.
