Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6: imdrf device code a0501 captures the reportable event of balloon rx tunnel detachment.Imdrf device code a0401 captures the reportable event of catheter break.Block h11: investigation results the returned hurricane rx dilatation balloon was analyzed, and a visual inspection found no damages or evidence of catheter break however, the device returned without the rx tunnel.A media inspection was performed on the photos provided by the customer and shows that the rx tunnel was detached.No other problems with the device were noted.With all the available information, boston scientific concludes the reported event of balloon rx tunnel detachment was confirmed however, the reported event of catheter break was not confirmed.It is possible that the rx tunnel detached occurred due to procedural factors such as excess of force, pressure or anatomical conditions.Also, it is possible that interaction with a sharp surface during or previous to the procedure, could have caused the problem found.Therefore, the most probable root cause is an adverse event related to procedure.
