Manufacturer Narrative

Summary of event: as reported, during an angioplasty procedure in the right distal superficial femoral artery (sfa), an advance 35 lp low profile balloon catheter ruptured inside the patient.A cook ansel 6 x 45 cm sheath was used during the procedure.The anatomy was calcified, and the lesion was 95% occluded.An inflation device was used to inflate the balloon to 8 atmospheres and the balloon burst on the first inflation.Just the balloon catheter was removed and replaced with a different sized balloon catheter of the same type to complete the procedure successfully.Blood was noted in the inflation device and the balloon was not inflated inside of a stent prior to the rupture.The patient is reportedly doing "fine".Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record, drawing, instructions for use (ifu), and quality control procedures were conducted during the investigation.A visual inspection of the complaint device was also conducted.The complaint device was returned to cook for investigation.A pinhole was noted in the balloon, causing the balloon to leak.A document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record found no relevant non-conformances on the lot.A review of complaint history found no additional complaints for this lot number.The product ifu states ¿if balloon pressure is lost and/or balloon rupture occurs, deflate balloon and remove balloon and sheath as a unit.¿ the information provided upon review of the dmr, dhr, ifu, and investigation of the returned device suggests that there is evidence the device was manufactured to specification.There is no evidence of non-conforming devices in-house or in the field.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.Based on the information provided and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that the patient¿s anatomy contributed to this event.It is likely that the balloon was punctured by calcification, as the vessel was reportedly calcified and almost totally (95%) occluded.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation was required.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
