Event or Problem Description

The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy in the left anterior descending artery (lad) using a penumbra engine canister (canister), penumbra engine (engine), and indigo system catrx aspiration catheter (catrx).During the procedure, the physician placed the catrx in the target vessel and the canister in the receptacle of the engine.While the engine was powered on, only three out of the four indicator lights were illuminated on the engine; therefore, the canister was removed.The procedure was completed using another canister and the same engine and catrx.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
