Correction: original device product code mjn is wrong.The correct device product code is dqy.The investigation of the returned balloon catheter found the hub occluded with material consistent with dried contrast from the device preparation.After bypassing the hub, the balloon was attempted to be inflated.However, the investigation found a rupture in the balloon resulting in a leak, which is consistent with the alleged product issue.Further investigation found a fibrous material consistent with cotton within the balloon at the site of the rupture; however, the investigation could not determine when the cotton material entered the balloon or what the cotton material originated from.The physical evaluation of the device could not identify the conditions or circumstances that led to the rupture, but the damage is consistent with the device experiencing forces over specification.The findings from this investigation have been communicated to quality.
