Description of Event or Problem · 1
IT WAS REPORTED THAT A VERY EXPERIENCED PHYSICIAN WAS USING THE DEVICE AND A .025 NITREX WIRE IN A GRAFT. HE DESCRIBED THE VESSEL TO BE TORTUOUS, BUT NOT EXTREMELY. THE DEVICE WAS IN THE BRACHIAL ARTERY; HOWEVER, IT COULD NOT GET PAST THE STENOSIS. THE TIP OF THE CATHETER BROKE OFF. AS A RESULT, A SNARE WAS USED BY THE PHYSICIAN TO REMOVE THE TIP. FURTHER DETAILS ARE BEING PURSUED.
