    AS REPORTED: "SURGEON TOOK THE GUIDEWIRE, INSERTED IT AND THEY HAD DIFFICULTY PULLING IT OUT AND THE WIRE BROKE OFF. IT WAS INSERTED THRU THE R4 CATHETER AND THEY SAID THE CATHETER DID NOT ADVANCE PAST MID ARM LEVEL SO AT THAT POINT THEY DECIDED TO REMOVE THE CATHETER AND WIRE AND USE AN ALTERNATIVE GROIN APPROACH. THE CATHETER CAME OUT OF THE SHEATH AND THAT'S WHEN THE SURGEON FOUND OUT THAT THE CORE OF THE WIRE WAS SNAPPED AND ONLY THE COILS WERE SEEN COMING OUT OF THE SHEATH. SO THEY HAD TO SEND THE PATIENT TO A DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT, (B)(4) LAB, WHO TRIED TO SNARE THE DAMAGED WIRE. HE WAS ABLE TO PULL THE COIL WIRE OUT OF THE PATIENT. THE PATIENT HAD TO BE KEPT OVERNIGHT BECAUSE OF THIS." IT HAS BEEN INDICATED THAT THE USED GUIDEWIRE WILL BE RETURNED FOR EVALUATION.
