Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported that the physician intended to use an integrity rx coronary bare metal stent to treat a severely tortuous and moderately calcified lesion located in the ostium right coronary artery, exhibiting 85% stenosis.There was no damage noted to packaging and no issues noted when removing the device from the hoop/tray.The device was inspected and negative prep was performed with no issues noted.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass a previously-deployed stent.Resistance was encountered when advancing the device and excessive force was used during delivery.It was reported that the stent failed to cross position; the stent failed to cross the first time.It was reported that the stent would not cross because the guide wasn't the correct size for the anatomy.The doctor changed out the catheter and went to use the stent again.The physician noticed while loading the stent on the wire that either the stent strut was sticking up or there was tissue on the strut.It was reported that it was too small to tell.The physician decided to use another stent instead and it was successfully implanted.The integrity rx stent went into the body once.No dissection or any anatomical damage was noted.Patient status post-procedure is alive with no injury.
