Event or Problem Description
On (b)(6) 2019, the patient underwent a thrombectomy procedure in the right internal carotid artery (ica) and middle cerebral artery (mca) using a neuron max 6f 088 long sheath (neuron max).During the procedure, a neuron max was advanced through a non-penumbra sheath in the right ica.A coaxial system of a penumbra system 3max reperfusion catheter (3maxc) and a penumbra system jet 7 reperfusion catheter (jet7) were then advanced over a guidewire and through the neuron max.Several passes were completed using a jet 7 and a 3max achieving a tici score 2a.After removal of the jet7, a digital subtraction angiography (dsa) was obtained through the neuron max in the proximal right ica showing vasospasm, involving the cervical segment of the right ica; therefore, 10 mg of intra-arterial verapamil was infused using a slow hand bolus technique through the neuron max.Post-verapamil infusion angiography showed the vasospasm was resolved.The vasospasm was reported to be a non-serious adverse event with a definite relationship to the index procedure and neuron max.
