Device evaluated by mfr: the complaint device was received for product analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the device was subjected to positive pressure.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 30mm distal of the proximal markerband.The rated burst pressure for this device is 18 atmospheres as per specification.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 present on the shaft of the device.This concludes the product analysis.
