    THE CONCERNED DEVICE SUBJECT TO THIS REPORTED EVENT, "IKAZUCHI ZERO", AN RX-TYPE PTCA BALLOON CATHETER COMPATIBLE WITH 0.014" GUIDEWIRE (GW), IS NOT DISTRIBUTED IN THE US, HOWEVER, WE INTEND TO REPORT THIS CASE AS THE EVENT OCCURRED ON ONE OF THE SIMILAR DEVICES FOR "RX TAKERU PTCA BALLOON DILATATION CATHETER" DISTRIBUTED IN THE US UNDER 510(K) # K163372. WE CONDUCTED DHR REVIEW; AS FOR BALLOONS, WE USE ONLY BALLOONS THAT HAVE WITHSTOOD RBP 20 TIMES OR MORE IN SAMPLING INSPECTIONS FOR EACH RAW MATERIAL LOT AND HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED TO BURST AT RBP OR HIGHER AND TO BREAK VERTICALLY (= DO NOT BREAK LATERALLY) EVEN IF THEY ARE INTENTIONALLY BURST. ALSO, IN THE FINAL PRODUCT SAMPLING INSPECTION, WE DO A PRESSURE RESISTANCE TEST FOR EACH LOT TO CONFIRM THAT IT DOES NOT BURST WITHIN RBP. FROM THE RESULT OF DHR REVIEW OF CONCERNED IKAZUCHI ZERO ZE-20-300 WITH LOT SR060456, IT PASSED ALL THE TESTS AND NO NONCONFORMITY OR ABNORMALITY WAS FOUND IN MANUFACTURING PROCESS. WE CONDUCTED BALLOON PRESSURE RESISTANCE TEST ON A SAMPLE FROM THE SAME PRODUCTION LOT OF IKAZUCHI ZERO ZE-20-300, SR060456. THE SAMPLE PASSED THE TEST, THE CATHETER SHAFT AND/OR THE BALLOON DID NOT HAVE LEAKAGE AND BURST/RUPTURE WHILE PRESSURIZED WITH RBP VALUE FOR 10 TIMES. ACCORDING TO THE RESULTS , THE INCIDENT IS ASSUMED NOT TO BE CAUSED BY ANY DEFECT OF THE DEVICE. DURING DILATING THE TARGET LESION WHICH WAS MASSIVELY CALCIFIED, SUDDEN BALLOON RUPTURE WAS OCCURRED WHICH ASSUME TO BE DUE TO PATIENT'S VESSEL CONDITION. PATIENT'S DEATH WAS COORRED AFTER THE PROCEDURE HAD BEEN COMPLETED, AND THE CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONCERNED DEVICE AND THE PATIEN'S DEATH IS UNKNOWN. SINCE THERE WAS NO ABNORMALITY IN THE MANUFACTURING RECORD AND THE TEST RESULT ON RETAINED SAMPLE FROM THE SAME LOT, IT IS ASSUMED THAT THE CAUSE OF PATIENT'S DEATH IS DUE TO CONDITION OF PATIENT / LESION. IN THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF IKAZUCHI ZERO (3216-3) , WE STATE THE POTENTIAL OF KNOWN RISK AS BELOW; [PRECAUTIONS DURING USAGE] [IMPORTANT BASIC PRECAUTIONS] THIS CATHETER MAY BE USED ONLY BY PHYSICIANS SKILLED IN PERCUTANEOUS TRANSLUMINAL ANGIOPLASTY. SINCE PTCA PROCEDURE MAY INDUCE DANGEROUS COMPLICATIONS, PERFORM THE PROCEDURE ONLY AFTER HAVING PREPARED FOR EMERGENCY CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTING (CABG). SINCE SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS MIGHT ARISE WHEN USING THIS CATHETER, OPERATION SHOULD BE DONE IN THE MEDICAL INSTITUTION WHERE EMERGENCY PROCEDURE CAN BE EXECUTED. THE PHYSICIAN IN CHARGE OF THE PROCEDURE SHOULD DETERMINE THE DURATION AND NUMBER OF BALLOON INFLATIONS BASED ON HIS/HER PAST EXPERIENCES. [ADVERSE EVENTS] ADVERSE EVENTS RELATED TO THE PRODUCT INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, INFARCTION CAUSED BY OCCLUSION OF DISTAL VESSELS OR SIDE BRANCH, VASOSPASM, STRIPPING OF VASCULAR ENDOTHELIUM, DISSECTION OF VASCULAR INTIMA, RE-OCCLUSION, VASCULAR PERFORATION OR RUPTURE, UNSTABLE ANGINA, BLOOD PRESSURE FLUCTUATION, STROKE, SHOCK, REACTION TO DRUGS, REACTION TO CONTRAST MEDIA, RENAL INSUFFICIENCY, TRANSIENT ISCHEMIA, AIR EMBOLISM, THROMBOEMBOLISM, INTERNAL BLEEDING, HEMATOMA, INFECTION, ETC. THESE ADVERSE EVENTS MAY CAUSE EMERGENT CORONARY BYPASS SURGERY, MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION, RE-STENOSIS, CARDIAC TAMPONADE, HEMORRHAGE, EMERGENT BRAIN SURGERY FOR CEREBRAL INFARCTION, FORMATION OF VESSEL FISTULA, ANEURYSM, ARRHYTHMIA, AND EVEN DEATH.

THE SECOND MARGINAL PRESENTS SIGNIFICANT STENOSIS (50-70%). RIGHT CORONARY: THE PROXIMAL RIGHT CORONARY ARTERY HAS AN OLD C-TYPE OCCLUSION. <CORONARY ANGIOPLASTY> PARTIALLY COLLATERALIZED RIGHT CORONARY OCCLUSION WITHOUT THERAPEUTIC USE. MASSIVELY CALCIFIED PROXIMAL INTERMEDIATE LAD LESION THEN CALCIFIED LAD 3 LESION. FFR LAD 0.75. SO DECISION TO APPROACH PROXIMAL LAD.
