Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that balloon rupture and stent inadequate apposition occurred.The target lesion was located in the mildly tortuous and heavily calcified proximal left anterior descending artery (lad).Rotablation was performed with a 1.5 mm burr followed by another 1.75 mm burr.A 2.75 x 20 mm promus premier¿ drug-eluting stent was then advanced to treat the lesion.However, during first inflation at 9 atmospheres, the balloon ruptured.The stent was deployed and balloon was pulled negative.The device was removed from the patient's body.Subsequently, another non-bsc balloon catheter was advanced and deployed the stent sufficiently; and the procedure was completed.No patient complications were reported and the patient's status was fine.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr.: promus premier us mr 2.75 x 20mm stent delivery system was returned for analysis.The stent was not returned for analysis as it was deployed in the patient during the procedure.The manufacturing data for this device was reviewed and no anomalies were highlighted with the crimp details.The maximum stent profile for this device was within max crimped stent profile measurement.The balloon appeared to have been subjected to positive pressure and a vacuum pulled.There was hardened medium resembling blood present in the balloon.An attempt was made to inflate the device to rated burst pressure (rbp); however this failed due to hardened medium in the inflation lumen.The device was soaked at 37 degrees celsius in waterbath.After soaking the device, an attempt was made to inflate the device again however the device failed to inflate fully and began to leak out the distal tip indicating that there was a leak in the inner lumen.However the leak could not be identified due to the congealed blood present in the balloon and polymer extrusion.A visual and tactile examination of the hypotube revealed multiple kinks.It was not possible to examine the shaft polymer extrusion due to the presence of congealed blood in the balloon and extrusion.However the inflation media leaking from the tip of the device indicated a leak in the inner lumen.The tip was visually examined and no issues were noted.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.The investigation conclusion is operational context as the product meets the design and manufacture specification but due to anatomical/procedural factors encountered during the procedure, performance was limited.(b)(4).
