Device evaluated by mfr.: a mustang device was received for analysis.A visual and textile examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the balloon was subjected to positive pressure.A longitudinal tear was identified in the balloon material.The tear measured 62mm in length and extended from a position 1mm distal of the proximal markerband to 9mm distal of the distal markerband.There was no damage observed to the tip of the device.Found no kinks or damage to the shaft of the device.Both markerbands were undamaged and present on the shaft of the device.
