Device evaluated by mfr.: the device was returned for analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the balloon was subjected to positive pressure.The rated burst pressure for this device is 14 atmospheres as per mustang specification.The returned device was attached to an encore inflation unit.Positive pressure was applied when di water was observed to be leaking from a balloon pinhole located approximately 10mm distal from the proximal markerband.A visual examination of the markerbands identified no issues.A visual and tactile examination identified no kinks or damage to the shaft and tip.
