Manufacturer Narrative

The product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded with traces of blood on the exterior of the catheter and between the catheter and the returned maquet sheath.A catheter tubing kink was observed at approximately 34.3cm from the iab tip.At this same location, an optical fiber break was also observed.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter tubing, y-fitting and extracorporeal tubing was performed and no leaks were detected.The iab was placed on the cs300 pump and pumped for two hours which represents one complete autofill cycle.The iab pumped normally and no alarm sounded.The optical fiber was found to be broken from a kink, confirming the reported problem.However, the evaluation was not able to duplicate nor confirm the reported catheter restriction alarm.We were unable to determine how or when the kink may have occurred.A device and lot history record review was completed for the reported product.No nonconformances were found that are considered to be related to the event.The failure mode is addressed in the risk file and is operating within its risk profile.The ifu addresses the reported failure.There were no ncmrs identified which could cause or contribute to the reported failure.The investigation does not indicate that the device was inadvertently released as non-conforming or an adulterated product or was a counterfeit.The complaint history review did not identify an adverse trend (increase in number of complaints over past three (3) months).Based on the rational provided above, no escalation to the capa process is required reference complaint #(b)(4).
