Definity perflutren reactions

Hi everyone,
I know there is occasionally some talk about Lumason reactions, but wondering if anyone has seen a cluster of severe Definity reactions lately. We had two patients who experienced cardiac arrest almost immediately after administration. Both from Lot 1352/Exp 4/2025. We are reporting to the mfg and MedWatch but interested if this group has seen anything.
Thanks!
Erin
