Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported that this was an arteriotomy closure of the calcified left common femoral artery using three proglide devices after a revascularization of the right lower extremity procedure using a 6f sheath.Reportedly, a cuff miss "[suture retrieval issue]" occurred with the first proglide device.A second proglide device was attempted; however, it did not have adequate blood marker from the marker lumen (the device was flushed before insertion and re-flushed out of the body when marker was insufficient).An 8f sheath was inserted and repeat femoral angiogram completed, no abnormalities noted.A third proglide device successfully deployed and hemostasis was achieved.The patient was taken to recovery for usual post-op care.The patient was transferred to the hospital after 2.5 hours of recovery.During that recovery period, patient reported nausea and ¿not feeling well¿.The patient was treated for a vagal reaction (hypotension and bradycardia) with 1,100ml normal saline and 0.5mg atropine.Vital signs returned to normal limits, nausea was relieved.The patient was ambulated at 2.5 hours of recovery and the patient's nausea returned.The left groin was soft, no bleeding, no hematoma post procedure and recovery.The patient was transferred to hospital for further testing and monitoring.Computed tomography scan revealed an infra-inguinal/groin hematoma and could not rule out active bleeding.The size of the hematoma was not described and no treatment was required/performed for the hematoma.The patient was taken to interventional radiology and a coil embolization procedure was completed to treat a bleeding circumflex femoral artery branch near the left common femoral artery.The cause of the bleeding was unknown.The latest report was that the patient was recovering well with stable vital signs and remained asymptomatic.No additional information was provided.
