Product analysis: the rapid cross catheter was returned to medtronic for evaluation within its shelf box.No ancillary devices, cine, images or procedure notes were returned for evaluation.The rapidcross was returned detached in two segments.A proximal segment including the manifold attached and the distal balloon segment terminated at the bond area.The distal balloon segment was detached from the proximal catheter.An inventory of the rapidcross catheter concluded that all components were accounted for.The proximal segment terminated at the proximal wire port and exhibited tensile/torsional stretching.No abnormalities were noted on the balloon chamber.The balloon chamber was observed within its post inflation profile.No abnormalities were noted on the catheter distal tip.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
