Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by manufacturer: the complaint device was returned for analysis.The catheter shaft was inspected for any defects and 2 kinks were found at 2.5 cm from the distal tip and 7 cm from the distal tip.The balloon was inspected and no defects were noted.The balloon was inflated to the recommended inflation volume and no defects were noted.Both proximal and distal balloon bonds were examined and found to meet the required bond length specification.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The most probable root cause is operational context as device performance was limited due to anatomical/ procedural factors.(b)(4).
