Manufacturer Narrative

Block e1: this event was reported by the distributor.The physician is: (b)(6).Block d4, h4: the complainant was unable to report the device lot number; therefore, the manufacture date and expiration date are unknown.Block h6: medical device problem code a04 captures the reportable event of balloon damage.Block h10: investigation result: a visual and microscopic examination of the returned complaint device found that the balloon was torn longitudinally.No damage found on the catheter of the device.Based on the available information, it is possible that factors encountered during the procedure, the interaction with scope or any other surface during the procedure could create friction on the balloon, caused the balloon to tear longitudinally, which was perceived as balloon damage during the procedure.Therefore, the most probable root cause is adverse event related to procedure.A manufacturing batch record review was unable to be performed as the lot number is unknown.However, a ship history review was performed to identify the most probable lots, and a dhr history review on the most probable lots did not identify any deviations within manufacturing/service processes that could have contributed to the event.
