It was reported that the procedure performed was to treat a de novo, moderately calcified, mildly tortuous left anterior descending coronary artery that is 75% stenosed.Once at the lesion for post-dilation, a 3.50x6mm nc trek neo balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) ruptured at 12 atmospheres during the first inflation.The nc trek neo bdc was removed and a new unspecified nc trek balloon was used to complete the procedure.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device was not returned for analysis.Production record and corrective and preventative actions (capa) reviews were performed and revealed no indication of a product quality issue.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no other similar complaints from this lot.Based on the information received, 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.In this case, it is likely that the balloon interacted with the moderately calcified anatomy resulting in the reported balloon rupture during inflation.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.
