device evaluation:
the product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded and blood on the interior and exterior of the catheter and between the catheter and the sheath.The pressure and extender tubing were also returned.One kink was found on the catheter tubing near the y-fitting approximately 73.9cm from the iab tip.A second kink was found on the catheter tubing and inner lumen approximately 40.6cm from the iab tip.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter, y-fitting, extracorporeal, pressure and extender tubing was performed and a leak was detected on the membrane at approximately 1.3cm from the rear seal and measuring approximately 0.013 cm in length.The reported problem was most likely triggered by a leak which was found on the membrane.Under magnification, a whitish patch was observed around the leak.This whitish patch is the typical appearance of an abrasion mark which is caused by calcified plaque in the aorta.A non-conforming material report review was completed for the reported product.No nonconformances were found that are considered to be related to the event.Reference complaint # (b)(4).
