Device evaluated by mfr.: fg maverick 2 mr, 2.50mm x 15mm was returned for analysis.Visual / tactile inspection identified multiple kinks along the hypotube.No kinks or damages.Microscopic analysis revealed no issues identified during a microscopic examination of the extrusion shaft.A detailed microscopic examination of the balloon material identified no damages.No tears or pinholes were observed in the balloon material.A microscopic examination of the tip section found no damage.Leakage test revealed that the device was attached to a pretested encore inflation unit (encore tested using a druck gauge).The balloon was inflated to its rated burst pressure (rbp) of 14atmospheres with no leaks noted.A vacuum was pulled and the balloon deflated without any issue.The balloon was inflated for three more occasions and on each occasion the balloon inflated to its rbp and maintained pressure with no leaks noted.
