Block h6: device code 1074 captures the reportable event of balloon burst.Block h10: investigation results a visual examination of the returned complaint device found the balloon did not show any visual defects and looked normal.No damage was found on the catheter of the device.Functional analysis was performed, and the balloon was inflated without a problem; however, the balloon would not hold pressure due to a pinhole located at the proximal section of the body of the balloon.This failure is likely due to factors or conditions related to procedure, such as handling of the device during preparation, initial set-up or during procedure that could have affected its performance and its intended purpose.Therefore, the most probable root cause is adverse event related to procedure.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.
