During a procedure an attempt was made to use a resolute onyx rx coronary drug eluting stent to treat a non tortuous, moderately calcified lesion with 70% stenosis in the proximal left anterior descending (lad) artery.The device was inspected with no issues.Negative prep was performed with no issue noted.The lesion was predilated.The device did not pass through a previously deployed stent.Resistance was not encountered when advancing the device.Excessive force was not used during delivery.It is reported that stent deformation occurred in vivo during positioning/advancement.It is stated that the physician put the stent in and realised it was a little short and when removing the device a strut was noted to be lifted on one end.No patient injury is reported.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Product analysis summary: the stent was positioned between the markerbands but not meeting specifications due to deformation of the proximal wraps.Deformation was evident from the 29th to 34th distal stent wraps with struts raised, bunched, and overlapping.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.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
