Event Description
|
A resolute onyx rx drug eluting stent was intended to be used during a procedure.The target lesion was at the proximal rca with moderate calcification and severe tortuosity.No damage noted to device packaging and no issues removing the device from the hoop/tray.The device was inspected with no issues noted.The lesion was pre-dilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was encountered while advancing the device to the target lesion.Excessive force was not used during attempted delivery.Stent dislodgement was reported to have occurred during removal of the device following failed delivery.When stent was prepositioned at the proximal rca, with moderate exertion due to tortuosity of the vessel, it was realized that the stent was long for the lesion.The stent system was removed but it was suddenly realized that the stent was no longer there.Upon checking the location of where stent that was supposed to be dislodged, stent was nowhere to be found.No injury to the patient reported.The procedure was completed with a shorted drug eluting stent.

Product analysis summary: stent was positioned between the markerbands but not meeting specifications due to deformation of the proximal wraps.Deformation was evident to the 12th distal stent wraps with struts raised.No deformation was evident to the distal tip.The inner lumen patency could not be verified with a 0.015 inch mandrel most likely due to hardened blood in the guidewire lumen.No other damage evident to the remainder of the device.The device returned with stent in position on balloon.It was reported that the correct device returned, and stent dislodgement was reported in error.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
