Event Description
|
An attempt was made to use a resolute integrity rx coronary drug eluting stent to treat a non-tortuous and mildly calcified lesion.
The device was inspected with no issues noted.
Negative prep was not performed.
The lesion was pre-dilated.
The device did not pass through a previously-deployed stent.
Resistance was encountered but no excessive force used.
It was reported that stent deformation occurred due to the use of the device in a tight lesion.
The stent was replaced by another manufacturer's device to complete the procedure.
The physician assessed that the event was due to use of device in difficult lesion.
No patient injury was reported.
