(b)(4).Visual examination of the returned complaint device found the balloon did not show visual defects and was in a good condition.No damage 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 several pinholes in the body of the balloon.This failure is likely due to factors encountered during the procedure and/or the interaction with the scope could have caused the damages found in the balloon (pin holes) and for this reason did not hold the pressure.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.A labeling review was performed and from the information available, this device was used per the instructions for use (ifu)/product label.
