Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded with blood on the interior and exterior of the catheter and between the catheter and the sheath.The returned sheath was not a maquet product.The extender tubing was also returned.A visual examination of the product detected the inner lumen within the membrane was completely separated within a kink approximately 24.6cm from iab tip.The inner lumen was found occluded with dried blood.The occlusion was unable to be cleared.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter, y-fitting, extracorporeal and extender tubing was performed and no other leaks were detected.The break found in the inner lumen appears to have been the result of a severe kink, which eventually failed causing reported problems.It is difficult to determine when the break occurred but it is possibly a result of patient movement during the procedure.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).
