Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device was not returned for evaluation.The lot history record (elhr) and corrective and preventive actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a review of the complaint history of the reported lot did not indicate a lot specific quality issue.The investigation determined that the reported balloon rupture appears to be related to operational context.There was no leak noted during preparation, which suggests a product quality issue did not contribute to the reported difficulties.It was reported by the account that the balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) interacted with the moderately tortuous, moderately calcified and 90% stenosed lesion resulting in the reported difficulty advancing the device and subsequently the balloon became damaged and ruptured during inflation.Based on the reported information, there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the procedure was to treat a 90% stenosed de novo lesion in the posterior descending artery (pda) with moderate calcification and moderate tortuosity.For pre-dilatation, the 2x15mm nc trek neo balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) was advanced to the target lesion with resistance due the anatomy.The balloon was inflated; however, the balloon ruptured to 12 atmospheres (atm).Therefore, the bdc was removed from the patient.A non-abbott balloon was used in to continue the procedure.There was no adverse patient effect and no clinically significant delay reported in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
