Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6: device code a0402 captures the reportable event of balloon burst.Block h10: investigation result: visual examination of the returned complaint device found that the balloon and the catheter of the device had no damages.Microscopic inspection was done and found the balloon had a pinhole, which does not confirms the reported event of balloon burst.The pinhole problem found could have been interpreted by the customer as the reported event of balloon burst.Functional analysis was performed, and the balloon was inflated without a problem; however, the balloon would not hold pressure due to a pinhole in the distal section on the body of the balloon.It is possible that factors encountered during the procedure, such as the interaction with scope, any other surface or any other object during the procedure could create friction, caused the balloon pinhole, which was perceived as a burst during the procedure.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.
