  • MalfunctionSep 29, 2026Material Deformation

    On (b)(6) 2026, a patient underwent a recanalization procedure using a Halo One device in the superficial femoral artery via a contralateral approach. During the procedure, calcification at the access site resulted in deformation of the sheath tip, causing it to curl and rendering the device unusable. Upon inspection, damage to the sheath tip was observed. There was no reported patient injury.
