Block h6: device code a0402 captures the reportable event of balloon burst.Block h10: investigation results: a 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 confirm 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 evaluation was performed and the balloon was inflated without problem; however, the balloon would not hold pressure due to the pinhole located at the distal section on the body of the balloon.Based on the available information, it is possible that factors encountered during the procedure, such as interaction with any surface during the procedure could create friction on the balloon, 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.
