Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported by a healthcare professional that a deltamaxx coil (cdx180835-30/c39755), a prowler select plus microcatheter (606-s255fx/17647636) and an enpower control cable(ecb000182-00/s11830) were used during a coil embolization procedure of a ruptured thoracic aneurysm at the left subclavian artery where the coil could not be detached and was found to have unraveled and entangled with the tip of the microcatheter.After anchoring with a presidio coil, the deltamaxx coil (complaint product 1), used as the 3rd coil, could not be detached.An attempt was made to remove the coil but it was unraveled.All systems were removed from the patient as the coil was entangled in the tip of the prowler select plus microcatheter (complaint product 2); the coil was removed completely.There was concern that the microcatheter was broken so the enpower control cable (complaint product 3) was also replaced.It is possible that the cable got dirty during that time.The coil was replaced with another of the same size and the procedure was successfully completed by 4 coils without further issues or delay.Reportedly, the patient was a (b)(6) male, whose vessel was heavily tortuous and heavily calcified.A y connector (okay, goodman) was also used for this procedure.There was also no patient injury/complication reported and no delay in procedure.The complaint product was new and stored per labeling instructions.The procedure was conducted in accordance with the ifu and the constant flush had been maintained at all time.No visible defect/damage was noted on the products prior to the event.No unintended detachment was observed in the vessel or in the microcatheter.The product are not available for the investigation.No further information is available.
