The device was requested to be returned, but did not arrive for product evaluation.Therefore, a root cause could not be determined.The device history record review was completed and all manufacturing inspections passed with no non-conformances.An engineering evaluation was initiated to assess for any manufacturing related processes which could be correlated to the issue.As part of the manufacturing process 100 percent of the balloons go through a balloon inspection.Based on the available information, there is no evidence that supports or confirms the failure mode is associated with a manufacturing or design defect.It is not known if procedural factors may have contributed to the event.Complaint histories for all reported events are reviewed against trending control limits on a monthly basis and any excursions above the control limits are assessed and documented as part of the monthly review.
