    Description of Event or Problem · 0

    MEDTRONIC RECEIVED A REPORT THAT THE PATIENT WAS UNDERGOING TREATMENT FOR A SACCULAR, UNRUPTURED LEFT CLINOID C5 SEGMENT ANEURYSM WITH A MAX DIAMETER OF 6.3 MM AND A 3.0 MM NECK DIAMETER. IT WAS NOTED THAT THE PATIENT'S VESSEL TORTUOSITY WAS SEVERE. THE ACCESS VESSEL WAS THE FEMORAL ARTERY, WITH 7.8MM DIAMETER. THE LANDING ZONE WAS 3.1MM DISTALLY AND 4.0MM PROXIMALLY. DUAL ANTIPLATELET TREATMENT (DAPT) WAS ADMINISTERED. THE PRU LEVEL WAS NORMAL. IT WAS REPORTED THAT AFTER THE OPERATOR ESTABLISHED ACCESS, A PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER WAS POSITIONED IN PLACE. A SHIELD PED400-18 DEVICE WAS UNPACKED AND HYDRATED. THE DISTAL END OF THE DEVICE WAS ADVANCED THROUGH THE Y-VALVE TO THE PROXIMAL/TAIL END OF THE PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER. WHILE THE ASSISTANT ADVANCED THE DELIVERY WIRE TO ITS FULL EXTENT, VERY LITTLE RESISTANCE WAS NOTED. THE DISTAL END OF THE DEVICE WAS UNABLE TO ENTER THE PROXIMAL/TAIL END OF THE PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER. THE OPERATOR THEN WITHDREW THE ENTIRE DEVICE ONTO THE TABLE AND ATTEMPTED TO ADVANCE THE DELIVERY WIRE BACK AND FORTH; HOWEVER, THE STENT REMAINED STATIONARY. IT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY NOTED THAT THE DEVICE HAD BECOME DETACHED (DEVICE DETACHMENT). THE OPERATOR THEN REPLACED THE DEVICE WITH A PED400-16 PIPELINE FLOW DIVERTER STENT. AFTER HYDRATION, THE DEVICE WAS ADVANCED TO THE C7 SEGMENT. IN SITU DEPLOYMENT WAS ATTEMPTED. DEPLOYMENT WAS INITIATED IN THE INTERNAL CAROTID ARTERY BY DEPLOYING THE DISTAL END. THE OPERATOR SLOWLY RETRACTED THE DELIVERY CATHETER TO EXPOSE THE RADIOPAQUE MARKERS. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE DELIVERY WIRE STABILIZED WHILE THE DELIVERY CATHETER WAS WITHDRAWN TO DEPLOY THE DISTAL END. HOWEVER, THE DISTAL END FAILED TO OPEN. AT THAT TIME, APPROXIMATELY 6 MM OF THE DEVICE HAD ALREADY BEEN DEPLOYED. THE OPERATOR THEN INCREASED TENSION AND ADVANCED THE DELIVERY WIRE WHILE FIXING THE PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER IN AN ATTEMPT TO PROMOTE EXPANSION, AND AN ADDITIONAL 4 MM OF THE DISTAL END WAS DEPLOYED; HOWEVER, THE DEVICE STILL FAILED TO OPEN. THE OPERATOR ATTEMPTED TO RECAPTURE THE DEVICE AND REDEPLOY THE DISTAL END. DURING THIS PROCESS, THE SYSTEM MIGRATED DOWNWARD, AND THE OPERATOR DID NOT REDUCE TENSION. DEPLOYMENT OF THE DISTAL END WAS CHANGED TO A TENSION-INCREASING TECHNIQUE. APPROXIMATELY 10 MM OF THE DISTAL END WAS DEPLOYED, SHOWING A FUSIFORM CONFIGURATION WITH POOR OPENING. DESPITE REPEATED ADJUSTMENTS WITH INCREASING AND DECREASING TENSION TO PROMOTE EXPANSION, THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE RESOLVED. FOR PROCEDURAL SAFETY, THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WAS WITHDRAWN FROM THE BODY. THE DEVICE COULD NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER. A NEW DEVICE AND A NEW PHENOM 27 MICROCATHETER WERE THEN USED, AND THE PROCEDURE WAS ULTIMATELY COMPLETED. THE PIPELINE WAS USED FOR AN INDICATION THAT IS APPROVED (ON-LABEL). THE REPORTED DEVICE AND ANY ACCESSORY DEVICES WERE PREPARED AND FLUSHED AS INDICATED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE (IFU). NO PATIENT SYMPTOMS OR COMPLICATIONS WERE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS EVENT. ANCILLARY DEVICES INCLUDE A INTERMEDIATE CATHETER ¿ RUIKANGTONG 6F 115, BATAI ¿ 6F 90, LONG SHEATH, STRYKER GUIDE WIRE
