Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that a versacross steerable access solution was selected for use in a paroxysmal atrial fibrillation procedure.During the procedure, dilator was withdrawn from the sheath and wire was then readvanced, but dilator was unable to pass beyond the tip of the sheath.It appears that wire entered an irrigation hole at the distal end of the sheath, and dilator followed into the irrigation port.Sheath and dilator were removed from the body, and it was found that distal irrigation hole of the sheath was enlarged.At that point, the sheath was replaced and procedure was completed successfully.No patient complication was reported.The sheath is not expected to be return for analysis as it was disposed.
