Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The investigation of the returned balloon catheter system found a rupture in the balloon and heavy delamination of the distal balloon bond, which is consistent with the alleged product issue.A rupture in the balloon and delamination of the distal balloon bond are damages consistent with the balloon being over-inflated during the procedure and bursting, as described in the reported complaint.The physician evaluation of the device could not identify the condition or circumstances that led to the damage, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces over specification.
