Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was performed to treat a heavily calcified, moderately tortuous, concentric, de novo, distal superficial femoral artery.Pre-dilatation was done with a 5.5x80mm non-abbott balloon at 18 atm for 60 seconds.The 5.5x100mm supera stent was successfully implanted.The thumb slide was locked before the delivery system was withdrawn.The delivery system was removed with resistance.The physician was unsure if the resistance was with the stent or something else.It was then noted that the tip had separated and remained on the guide wire.Post-dilatation was performed then the tip was retrieved using a snare device.There was no adverse patient sequela reported.No additional information was provided.
