Manufacturing review: the device history records have been reviewed and this lot met all release criteria.There was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event.Investigation summary: one lutonix 018 drug-coated balloon catheter was returned for evaluation.Wrinkles were noted over the returned balloon, no other anomalies noted during visual evaluation.On the functional testing, the returned device was inflated to 6 atm, and as the balloon was in an inflated condition, a deformation was noted over the balloon.No other functional testing was performed.All the anomalies were noted under microscopic observation.Two radiographic images was reviewed.Two images of a 150 length 6mm diameter drug coated balloon.This shows the balloon with a focal waist in both images.The waist is in different locations within the balloon if this is the same balloon used in both images, it appears the balloon did not completely inflate with a focal waist.The investigation was confirmed for the reported abnormal inflation and identified a balloon twist as a wrinkle that was noted over the balloon during visual evaluation, and the deformity was also noted on the balloon upon inflation with the retuned device.All these anomalies were also confirmed during the radiographic image review.A definitive root cause for the reported abnormal inflation and identified a balloon twist could not be determined based upon the provided information.Labeling review: a review of product labeling documentation (e.G., procedural instructions, indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, contraindications, nursing guide, and unit label) did not find any product labeling inadequacy.Expiry date: 05/2025.
