    RELATED MANUFACTURING REF: 2184149-2022-00254. DURING THE ATRIAL FIBRILLATION PROCEDURE, A PERICARDIAL PERFORATION OCCURRED AFTER AN ISSUE WITH THE PRS-P SENSORS CHANGING POSITIONS DUE TO PATIENT COUGHING AND BODY MOVEMENT WHILE MAPPING IN THE LEFT ATRIUM. DUE TO THE CHANGE IN POSITION OF THE SENSORS THE SYSTEM COULD NOT COLLECT ANY INFORMATION SUCH AS GEOMETRY. THE SENSORS ON THE PATIENT'S BACK WERE THEN FIXED WITH ADHESIVE, BUT AFTER THIS THE PATIENT BECAME HYPOTENSIVE AND A PERFORATION WAS FOUND IN THE LEFT ATRIUM VIA AN ECHOCARDIOGRAM. A PERICARDIOCENTESIS WAS PERFORMED AND THE PATIENT WAS STABLE WHEN THE CASE WAS CANCELLED. THE PHYSICIAN ALLEGES THE ISSUE WAS DUE TO THE BAD PERFORMANCE OF THE SYSTEM.
