Event Description
|
It was reported that balloon rupture occurred.The 35% stenosed target lesion was located in an arteriovenous fistula in a mildly tortuous and moderately calcified brachiocephalic artery.A 6.0 x 120, 75cm mustang balloon catheter was advanced for dilatation.The balloon was attempted to be inflated twice at 4-6 atmospheres, however, the balloon could not be inflated to nominal pressure.The device was removed from the patient and upon checking, there was a small hole at the tip of the balloon.The physician used an inflation device to inflate the balloon at 4 atmospheres and noticed that there is a small leak.The procedure was completed with another 6.0mm x 80mm 75cm mustang balloon catheter.No patient complications were reported.

Device evaluated by mfr.: mustang 6.0 x 120, 75cm.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the device was subjected to positive pressure.The returned device was attached to an encore inflation unit.Positive pressure was applied when liquid was observed to be leaking from a balloon pinhole located at the distal edge of the distal markerband.An examination of the balloon material and markerbands identified no issues which could potentially have contributed to this complaint.A visual examination observed no issues or damage to the tip of the device.A visual and tactile examination found no kinks or damage to the shaft of the device.A visual examination observed no issues with the markerbands of the device.Both markerbands were undamaged and in the correct position on the shaft of the device.This concludes the product analysis.
