Product analysis summary: the device was returned to medtronic for analysis.A kink was evident on the hypotube.Blood was visible along the length of the inflation lumen.The device returned with no evidence of balloon inflation and the stent was still in position on the balloon with no deformation or stent expansion present.It was noted that blood was leaking from the balloon at the proximal pillow, indicating a possible leak site.The device was placed in a water bath to disperse the blood.The balloon failed negative prep.On pressurisation of the device, liquid was observed exiting the balloon at the proximal pillow; the balloon failed to inflate, and the stent failed to expand.Upon visual inspection a short longitudinal tear was observed on the balloon at the proximal pillow, over the proximal markerband.The balloon material was jagged and uneven at the tear site.No other deformation evident to the remainder of the device.Image analysis: six images were provided for review.Three images were of the device packaging and the lot number and device details match what was reported in the complaint file.One image was of the device loaded in a hoop, with a compliance chart attached to the hoop.The details on the compliance chart match the reported device details.It appeared that blood was visible on the hoop and on or in the device indicating the device had been placed back in the hoop after the procedure.Two further images appeared to be a close up of the distal section of the device within the hoop.Again blood was visible on or in the device.It was not possible to confirm the reported failure from still image review.Additional information: the stent was not implanted.The same inflation device was used with other devices.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
