Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr.: mustang device 12x6x745 was received for analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the device was subjected to positive pressure.The returned device was attached to an encore inflation unit.Positive pressure was applied when liquid was observed to be leaking from a balloon pinhole located approximately 12mm proximal of the proximal markerband.An examination of the balloon material and markerbands identified no issues which could potentially have contributed to this complaint.The rated burst pressure for this device is 14 atmospheres as per mustang specification.A visual and microscopic examination of the markerbands identified no issues which may potentially have contributed to the complaint incident.A visual and tactile examination identified no kinks or damage to the shaft which may have potentially contributed to the complaint incident.A visual and tactile examination identified no issues or damage to the tip of the device.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.
