InjuryJul 29, 2026Adverse Event Without Identified Device or Use Problem
It was reported that patient complications occurred.A loading dose of 324 mg of aspirin and 600 mg of clopidogrel were given prior to the procedure. The 8.00 mm x 2.50 mm target lesion was located in the first diagonal branch of the left anterior descending artery (LAD). The target lesion was pre-treated with a 2.50 mm x 15 mm non-compliant balloon angioplasty catheter resulting in 10% residual stenosis and TIMI flow 3. The target lesion was then successfully treated with a 2.50 mm x 15 mm Agent DCB resulting in 0% residual stenosis and TIMI flow of 3. An additional 28 mm x 3.00 mm target lesion located from the proximal to mid LAD was pre-treated with a 2.50 x 15 mm semi-compliant balloon angioplasty catheter resulting in 30% residual stenosis and TIMI flow of 3. The lesion was further treated with a 3.00 mm x 33 mm non-Boston Scientific drug eluting stent resulting in 0% residual stenosis and TIMI flow of 3. A non-target lesion located in the mid right coronary artery (RCA) was successfully treated prior to the treatment of target lesion using a 4.00 mm x 28 mm drug eluting stent and a 4.00 mm x 15 mm balloon angioplasty catheter. Post-procedure, elevated cardiac enzymes were det
