    Description of Event or Problem · 0

    IT WAS REPORTED THAT A (B)(6) MALE PATIENT UNDERWENT AN UNKNOWN ABLATION PROCEDURE WITH A PENTARAY NAV HIGH-DENSITY MAPPING ECO CATHETER AND A LASSO¿ ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY CATHETER. THE PATIENT SUFFERED CARDIAC TAMPONADE (CT) REQUIRING PERICARDIOCENTESIS AND PROLONGED HOSPITALIZATION. IT WAS REPORTED THAT A BB (TRANSEPTAL PUNCTURE) AND LEFT ATRIAL ANGIOGRAPHY (LAG) WERE CONDUCTED. THE LASSO AND PENTARAY WERE PLACED TO THE LEFT ATRIUM (LA). THE PATIENT WAS IN ATRIAL FIBRILLATION ON THE ECG MONITOR AND BLOOD PRESSURE WAS LOW. THE PATIENT WAS CHECKED FOR A PERICARDIAL EFFUSION WHICH WAS CONFIRMED WHEN CHEST WALL ECHO WAS PERFORMED. PERICARDIOCENTESIS WAS PERFORMED AND THE PATIENT LEFT THE ROOM AT THAT TIME THE PERICARDIAL EFFUSION WAS MINIMAL ON ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY. ABLATION WAS NEVER PERFORMED AS THE CARDIAC TAMPONADE OCCURRED DURING THE MAPPING PHASE. THE PATIENT WAS UNDER OBSERVATION. THE PHYSICIAN COMMENTED THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE PRODUCT. THE SHEATHS USED IN THE CASE WERE TWO SL0 AND ONE AGILIS SMALL 5FR SHORT SHEATH. THE TRANSEPTAL PUNCTURE WAS PERFORMED WITH A RF NEEDLE LARGE CURVE C1. PERSISTENT LEFT SUPERIOR VENA CAVA (PLSVC) WAS CHECKED ON THE CT, THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE BIOSENSE WEBSTER INC. (BWI) PRODUCT. CARDIAC REHABILITATION WAS PERFORMED BECAUSE THE PATIENT HAD RESTING TIME. NO ABLATION CATHETER WAS USED IN THE PROCEDURE AS THE CARDIAC TAMPONADE OCCURRED BEFORE THE INSERTION OF AN ABLATION CATHETER INTO THE PATIENT'S BODY. AT THAT POINT PHYSICIAN DECIDED NOT TO PERFORM ABLATION. THE PHYSICIAN¿S OPINION ON THE CAUSE OF THIS ADVERSE EVENT WAS THAT IT WAS NOT RELATED WITH THE BWI PRODUCT. THE PATIENT OUTCOME OF THE ADVERSE EVENT WAS REPORTED AS IMPROVED. THE GENERATOR INTENDED TO BE USED WAS A SMARTABLATE BUT NO ABLATION WAS DONE. PRIOR TO NOTING THE CARDIAC TAMPONADE, ABLATION WAS NOT PERFORMED; THEREFORE, NO STEAM POP OCCURRED. NO ERROR MESSAGES WERE OBSERVED ON THE BIOSENSE WEBSTER EQUIPMENT. THIS ADVERSE EVENT WAS DISCOVERED DURING USE OF BIOSENSE WEBSTER PRODUCTS. EXTENDED HOSPITALIZATION WAS REQUIRED BECAUSE OF CARDIAC REHABILITATION. NO RELEVANT TESTS/LABORATORY DATA AND NO OTHER RELEVANT MEDICAL HISTORY. THIS EVENT DID NOT OCCUR WITH INCORRECT GENERATOR SETTING. IT WAS NOT REPORTED THAT FLOW SWITCHING ISSUE OCCURRED. THE ABLATION CATHETER WAS NOT USED SO NO FORCE VISUALIZATION FEATURES WERE USED. CONSERVATIVELY, THIS WILL BE REPORTABLE ON THE LASSO AND PENTARAY CATHETERS AS THEY WERE IN THE PATIENT¿S HEART AT THE TIME OF THE INJURY. SHOULD MORE INFORMATION BECOME AVAILABLE, THIS WILL BE REVIEWED AND PROCESSED ACCORDINGLY.
