Event Description
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat two target lesions.The first lesion located in the mid-left circumflex coronary artery was treated with a 3.0 x 15 mm non-abbott stent.During treatment of the second target lesion located in the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery, after deployment of a 3.5 x 24 mm non-abbott stent, the 5.0 x 8 mm nc trek balloon dilatation catheter was advanced and inflated once at 14 atmospheres for 10 seconds.The balloon would not fully deflate and was observed to have a poor re-fold of the balloon which resulted in resistance during retraction between the balloon catheter and the non-abbott stent; however, the balloon catheter was ultimately retrieved successfully.Although a delay in the procedure was reported, there were no adverse patient effects.No additional information was provided.

(b)(4).Evaluation summary: visual, dimensional and functional inspections were performed on the returned device.The deflation issue was confirmed.The folded/winged balloon could not be confirmed due to the condition of the returned device.The difficulty to remove could not be replicated in a testing environment as they are based on operational circumstances.The investigation determined the reported complaints appear to be related to circumstances of the procedure.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history of the reported lot did not indicate a lot specific quality issue.Based on the information reviewed, there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.
