Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H10: manufacturing review: a complaint history review was performed.This is the first complaint reported for this product/lot number combination.Therefore, a device history record review is not required.Investigation summary: the physical sample was returned for evaluation.The returned device did not exhibit any damage.The patency of the device was successfully performed using an inhouse 0.014" guidewire.The balloon was inflated to 6atm with water and held pressure.The diameter of balloon measured 2.00mm which was conforming.The balloon deflated without an issue.The result of the investigation is inconclusive for the reported difficult to remove issue.The root cause for the reported difficult to remove issue could not be determined based upon the available information received from the field communications and device evaluation.Labeling review: the instructions for use for the sleek otw product was reviewed and contains the following information relevant to the reported event: balloon characteristics compliance charts are provided with each product.Please note that balloon diameters may vary within manufacturing tolerances.All inflations should be viewed under fluoroscopy.Warnings: to reduce the potential for vessel damage the inflated diameter of the balloon should approximate the diameter of the vessel just proximal and distal to the stenosis.Do not advance the guidewire, balloon dilation catheter, or any component if resistance is met, without first determining the cause and taking remedial action.Precautions: before removing catheter from sheath/guide catheter it is very important that the balloon is completely deflated.Proper functioning of the catheter depends on its integrity.Care should be used when handling the catheter.Damage may result from kinking, stretching, or forceful wiping of the catheter.Directions for use: procedure: insertion and inflation procedure: note: a 0.014¿ (0.356 mm) guidewire must be inserted in the sleek otw catheter across the balloon during any inflation of the balloon.Make sure that the balloon sleeve has been removed from the catheter balloon.Enter the vessel percutaneously using the standard seldinger technique over the appropriate guidewire for the size catheter being used.Advance the catheter across the lesion with fluoroscopic guidance using accepted percutaneous transluminal angioplasty technique and inflate the balloon to the appropriate pressure.Note: do not inflate the balloon or advance the catheter unless the guidewire is in place.Deflation and withdrawal deflate the balloon by drawing a vacuum with a 20 ml or larger syringe.Note: the larger the syringe diameter, the greater the suction that is applied.For maximum deflation a 50 ml syringe is recommended.Gently withdraw the catheter.As the balloon exits the vessel, use a smooth, gentle, steady, counterclockwise motion.If resistance is felt upon removal then the balloon and the sheath should be removed together as a unit under fluoroscopic guidance, particularly if balloon rupture or leakage is known or suspected.This may be accomplished by firmly grasping the balloon catheter and sheath as a unit and withdrawing both together, using a gentle twisting motion combined with traction.Apply pressure to the insertion site according to standard practice or hospital protocol for percutaneous vascular procedures.H10: g3.H11: h6 (method, result, conclusion).H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant/reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
