Summary of event: as reported, during an unknown procedure, an advance 35 lp low profile balloon catheter would not reach nominal pressure.Upon return and initial evaluation of the device, the balloon was ruptured.Additional information was received 14mar2024.The procedure involved an arteriovenous (av) dialysis shunt.The patient's anatomy was stenosed, and the left arm av anastomosis/radial-cephalic fistula was highly occluded.An unspecified 6-french sheath was used during the procedure, as well as an unspecified inflation device.The balloon was inflated two times to an unknown pressure.The balloon was not inflated within a stent, and blood was not noted in the inflation device.The balloon catheter was removed by itself, and a new balloon was used to successfully complete the procedure.A section of the device did not remain inside the patient¿s body.The patient was not hospitalized and did not require any additional procedures due to this occurrence.According to the initial reporter, the patient did not experience any adverse effects due to this occurrence.Investigation evaluation: reviews of the complaint history, device history record (dhr), instructions for use (ifu), manufacturing instructions, and quality control procedures were conducted during the investigation.A visual inspection was conducted as well.The complaint device was returned to cook for investigation.A longitudinal tear was noted running the full length of the balloon.A document-based investigation evaluation was performed.A review of the device history record found no relevant non-conformances on the lot.A review of complaint history found no additional complaints for this lot number.The product ifu was reviewed, and the customer followed all relevant instructions related to this failure.A review of the device master record (dmr) concluded that sufficient inspection activities are in place to identify this failure mode prior to distribution.The information provided upon review of the dmr, dhr, ifu, returned device, and complaint file suggests that there is evidence the device was manufactured to specification.There is no evidence of non-conforming devices in-house or in the field.Based on the information provided and the results of the investigation, cook has concluded that the patient¿s anatomy likely contributed to this event, as the patient anatomy was stenosed, and the left arm av anastomosis/radial-cephalic fistula was highly occluded.The risk analysis for this failure mode was reviewed and no additional escalation was required.The appropriate personnel have been notified and cook will continue to monitor for similar events.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803 and is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement contained herein is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned, that a death or serious injury occurred, nor that any cook device caused, contributed to, or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
