[177019197] The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy procedure in the right coronary artery (rca) using indigo system catrx aspiration catheters (catrxs) and a non-penumbra guide catheter. During the procedure, the physician found a catrx was kinked prior to removal from the packaging. The damage to the catrx was found prior to use, and therefore, it was not used in the procedure. The physician then opened another catrx. While advancing the catrx through the guide catheter in the target vessel, the proximal end of the catrx kinked and broke; therefore, it was removed. The procedure was completed using the third catrx and the same guide catheter. There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
Patient Sequence No: 1, Text Type: D, B5
