Block h6: imdrf device code a0406 captures the reportable event of catheter bent.Block h10: investigation result a visual examination of the returned complaint device found that the balloon was tightly folded which indicates that the device was not subjected to positive pressure.A visual examination was performed to the tip or markerbands and no issue were noted.A visual, tactile and microscopic analysis was performed, and the shaft of the device was kinked at proximately 410mm distal of the hub of the device.The reported problem is most likely due to excessive force being applied when handling the device during preparation for the procedure which could have possible affected the device performance and its intended purpose.Therefore, the most probable root cause is unintended use error caused or contributed to event.
