Manufacturer Narrative

The product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded and traces of blood found on the exterior of the catheter.Moderate blood was observed in the membrane and catheter.No kinks were observed on the catheter.The product was returned with only the membrane, catheter, y-fitting and statguard.No other defects were observed.A laboratory extracorporeal tube was used for the leak test.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter, y-fitting, and laboratory extracorporeal tubing was performed and one leak was detected on the membrane approximately 1.78cm from the rear seal measuring 0.015cm in length.The technician used a laboratory 0.025" guidewire to go through the inner lumen of the returned iab and found that the inner lumen had traces of blood but was cleared.The inner lumen leak test was performed and passed with no leaks.The reported problem was most likely triggered by the leak found on the membrane.The penetration found on the membrane appears to have been caused by a sharp object.We are unable to determine when this 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.Complaint record # (b)(4).
