Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr: the complaint device was received for product analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the balloon was subjected to positive pressure.A device leak test was performed when liquid was observed exiting a balloon pinhole located at approximately 3mm distal of the proximal markerband.The rated burst pressure for this device as per specification is 14 atmospheres.A visual and tactile examination found no kinks or damage to the shaft of the device.A visual and tactile examination found no damage to the tip of the device.A visual examination observed no issues with the markerbands of the device.Both markerbands were undamaged in the correct position on the device.This concludes the product analysis.
