Device evaluated by mfr.: a mustang device was returned for analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the device was subjected to positive pressure.It is not known when inflation occurred.Blood was identified inside the balloon which is evidence of a device leak.The returned device was attached to an encore inflation unit.Positive pressure was applied when liquid was observed to be leaking from a balloon pinhole located approximately 15mm distal of the proximal markerband.An examination of the balloon material and markerbands identified no issues which could potentially have contributed to this complaint.A visual examination observed no issues or damage to the tip of the device.A visual and tactile examination found no kinks or damage to the shaft of the device.A visual examination observed no issues with the markerbands of the device.Both markerbands were undamaged and in the correct position on the shaft of the device.
