Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Device evaluated by mfr.: returned product consisted of a maverick 2mr balloon catheter.Visual inspection revealed no damage or irregularity.Microscope inspection revealed a pinhole at the proximal end of the markerband.There was blood and contrast in the inflation lumen and the loosely folded balloon.Product analysis confirmed the reported event, as the device was found to have a pinhole to the balloon.Analysis could not confirm the reported crossing difficulties, which could not be confirmed because the clinical circumstances could not be replicated.
