One sprinter legend ptca balloon catheter was attempted to be used to pre-dilate a lesion.There was no damage noted to the device packaging.There were no issues noted when removing the device from the hoop/tray.The device was not inspected.Negative prep was performed with no issues.No difficulties noted when removing the protective sheath or stylette from the device.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.No resistance was encountered when advancing the device.Excessive force was not used during delivery.It was reported that the balloon was inflated to nominal pressure and was unable to deflate at the lesion site after the first inflation.The device had not been moved or re-positioned prior to deflation difficulties.A 50/50 contrast to saline solution was used.The entire delivery system was then pulled out, with the wire, from the vessel.It was informed that the large artery allowed for the successful removal of the device with no issues.A non-medtronic balloon catheter was then used to pre-dilate and stent was successfully deployed at the lesion site.No patient injury is reported.
