Event Description
|
This is filed to report the torn soft tip observed on the returned steerable guide catheter (sgc) which was used with the first clip delivery system (cds).It was reported that this was a mitraclip procedure to treat grade 4 mixed etiology mitral regurgitation (mr).The sgc and the ntw cds were advanced to the left atrium via right groin access without issue.There was difficulty opening the clip, but the clip popped open and the clip had detached from the cds.It was decided to remove the cds with the clip.The clip was retracted to the sgc tip via the lock line.Left groin access was then obtained and a guide wire was advanced across the septum next to the sgc.A 14 french balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was advanced to the septum and dilated the septum to allow for passage of the open clip.The bdc was removed and the sgc was retracted with the open clip across the septum into the right atrium and down to the groin.A new sgc and new cds were advanced to the left atrium via the left groin access.The mitral valve was treated and mr was reduced to grade 1 with the single clip.The atrial septal defect was closed with a septal occluder.The first sgc and clip were then fully removed from the patient via the right groin.Pressure was applied and the access sites were sutured.The patient is doing great.The following day, the patient was discharged home from the hospital with mr grade 1.No additional information was provided.
