B1, h1: it was initially reported that the balloon was "broken" and would not inflate.There has been no alleged leak, rupture, or separation of any balloon material associated with this complaint.The investigation concluded that the failure mode was difficult inflation.Per a search of risk documentation and previous complaint data, there is no evidence to suggest that this device failure would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or a serious injury if the failure were to recur.Furthermore, there is no evidence that the device caused or contributed to a serious injury, as no life-threatening or permanently impairing injury was alleged, nor was intervention taken as a result of the device failure which would be required to prevent permanent impairment or damage to the patient.As such, the event is not reportable under fda 21 cfr part 803 as it does not meet the criteria for a death, serious injury, or reportable product malfunction.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
