Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during a stent graft placement procedure, the balloon was allegedly ruptured at 12 atm when attempted to dilate it.There was no reported patient injury.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H10: manufacturing review: a complaint history review was performed.This is the first complaint reported for this product/lot number combination.However, the device history records were reviewed and there was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event investigation summary: the lifestream device was returned for evaluation.A longitudinal rupture on the balloon was confirmed.The rupture commenced at the distal cone and was 35mm in length.The result of the investigation is confirmed for the reported balloon rupture issue.The root cause for the reported balloon rupture issue could not be determined based upon the available information received from the field communications and device evaluation.Labeling review: the instruction for use for lifestream was reviewed and the following sections are applicable.B indication for use the lifestream¿ balloon expandable vascular covered stent is indicated for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in common and external iliac arteries.C contraindications the lifestream¿ balloon expandable vascular covered stent is contraindicated for use in: ¿ patients with uncorrected bleeding disorders ¿ patients who cannot receive recommended antiplatelet and/or anticoagulation therapy ¿ patients who are judged to have lesions that prevent complete expansion of the implant based on the lesion morphology, the diagnostic angiography and/or lesion response during pre-dilation.¿ lesions in which the lumen diameter post balloon angioplasty is insufficient for the passage of the endovascular system ¿ lesion locations subject to external compression d warnings ¿ use the device prior to the use by date specified on the package.¿ should excessive resistance be felt at any time during the procedure, do not force passage.¿ do not exceed the maximum rated burst pressure since this increases the potential for balloon or catheter rupture and vessel damage.The use of a pressure monitoring device is recommended to prevent over pressurization.¿ use only diluted contrast medium for balloon inflation.Do not use air or any gaseous medium to inflate the balloon as this may cause uneven expansion and difficulty in deployment of the covered stent.For the contrast/saline solution, a ratio of 50/50 is recommended.¿ do not retract the balloon until the balloon is fully deflated under vacuum.E precautions ¿ the device should only be used by physicians who are trained in endovascular procedures and are familiar with the required devices and materials, complications, side effects and hazards of peripheral vascular interventions.¿ prior to device use, refer to the covered stent sizing table on the label and read the instructions for use.¿ do not use if the delivery system cannot be properly flushed.¿ keep dry.Keep away from sunlight.M directions for use endovascular system preparation 4.Carefully inspect the pouch to ensure that the sterile barrier has not been compromised.Carefully remove the selected device from the package.5.Examine the stent system to ensure it has not been damaged during shipment and that its size, shape and condition are suitable for the procedure for which it is to be used.Do not use if product damage is evident.Inspect the covered stent for adherence to the balloon and centered placement in relation to the balloon marker bands.If the covered stent is not centered and/or does not firmly adhere to the balloon, do not use.6.Flush the delivery system guidewire lumen with sterile saline mixture until saline drops from the distal end of the endovascular system.Air evacuation 7.A 20 cc or smaller luer-lock syringe with a minimum of 5 cc¿s sterile saline mixture is recommended for use for aspirating this device.8.With the distal balloon tip pointing down and positioned below the level of the syringe, pull negative pressure until all air is expelled.9.Induce a negative pressure to remove any air from the balloon and inflation lumen.Repeat until all air is expelled.10.Carefully release to neutral.Allow the inflation lumen to fill with the diluted contrast medium and maintain a neutral pressure.Important: do not apply positive pressure to the balloon.11.Attach the prefilled inflation device to the inflation lumen of the catheter hub, ensuring no air bubbles remain at the catheter connection.12.Verify that the covered stent is still centered between the two radiopaque markers on the balloon catheter.Introduction of the endovascular system and placement of the covered stent 13.Advance the endovascular system over the guidewire into the introducer sheath.14.Further advance the endovascular system to the target treatment site within the introducer sheath and position the covered stent across the lesion.Verify that the covered stent is still centered within the balloon marker bands.Slowly retract the introducer sheath / guiding catheter while maintaining the position of the covered stent.Ensure the introducer sheath is retracted far enough to not compromise the balloon expansion and covered stent release.15.Slowly inflate the endovascular system balloon to nominal pressure, expanding the covered stent.Confirm complete expansion via fluoroscopic visualization.A 15 ¿ 30 second inflation time is recommended.Important: do not exceed the rated burst pressure of the delivery system.16.After covered stent deployment, apply negative pressure to the balloon until it is fully deflated.Withdraw the delivery system while maintaining negative pressure with the guidewire remaining across the lesion.H10: d4 (expiry date: 06/2024), g3, h2, h6 (method) h11: h6 (result, conclusion) h11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known
