The product was returned with the membrane completely unfolded and blood on the interior and exterior of the catheter and between the catheter and the sheath.The sheath was over the catheter and partially covering the rear portion of the membrane.The extender and pressure tubing were also returned.A kink was found on the catheter tubing and inner lumen near the y-fitting approximately 76.5cm from iab tip.An underwater leak test of the balloon, catheter, y-fitting, extracorporeal, pressure and extender tubing was performed and a leak was detected on the membrane approximately 1.8cm from the rear seal measuring 0.013cm in length.The reported problem was most likely triggered by a leak which was found on the membrane.Under magnification, a whitish patch was observed around the leak.This whitish patch is the typical appearance of an abrasion mark which is caused by calcified plaque in the aorta.A lot history record review was completed for the reported product.No nonconformances were found that are considered to be related to the event.Reference complaint (b)(4).
