Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Due to system limitations, section h6 required to input type of investigation, investigation findings, and investigation conclusions for an initial report.Pending additional information to complete investigation.Additional information is pending and will be submitted within 30 days upon receipt.
Event or Problem Description
As reported, after passage of an unknown guidewire, the balloon on a 5mm x 15cm saberx radianz percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) 190cm balloon catheter ruptured during the first dilation at about 8 atmospheres (atm).There were no reported injuries to the patient.The device was used to treat a heavily calcified superficial femoral artery (sfa) lesion.Additional information was requested but not provided.The device will not be returned for evaluation.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
After further review of additional information received the following sections have been updated accordingly: g3, g6, h1, h2, h3 and h6.As reported, after passage of an unknown guidewire, the balloon on a 5mm x 15cm saberx radianz percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) 190cm balloon catheter ruptured during the first dilation at about eight atmospheres (atm).There were no reported injuries to the patient.The device was used to treat a heavily calcified superficial femoral artery (sfa) lesion.Additional information was requested but not provided.The product was not returned for analysis.A product history record (phr) review of lot 82270307 revealed no anomalies or non-conformances during the manufacturing and inspection processes that can be associated with the reported event.The reported ¿balloon burst at/below rbp¿ could not be verified as the device was not returned for analysis.The exact cause could not be determined.Vessel characteristics of heavy calcification likely contributed to the reported event.However, without return of the product for analysis or films of the event it is difficult to draw a clinical conclusion between the device and the reported event.According to the warnings in the safety information in the instructions for use, ¿prior to angioplasty, the catheter should be examined to verify functionality and integrity and ensure that its size and shape are suitable for the specific procedure for which it is to be used.Do not use if product damage is suspected or evident.To reduce the potential for vessel damage or the risk of dislodgement of particles it is very important that the inflated diameter of the balloon should approximate the diameter of the vessel just proximal and distal to the lesion.The balloon dimensions are printed on the product label.The compliance table incorporated with the product shows how balloon diameter increases as pressure increases.Do not exceed the rated burst pressure recommended on the label.The rated burst pressure is based on the results of in vitro testing.At least 99.9% of the balloons (with a 95% confidence) will not burst at or below their rated burst pressure.Use of a pressure monitoring device is recommended to prevent over-pressurization.Pressure in excess of the rated burst pressure can cause balloon rupture and potential inability to withdraw the catheter through the introducer sheath.Balloon rupture can cause vessel damage and the need for additional intervention.Use only the recommended balloon inflation medium (a 50/50 mixture by volume of contrast medium and normal saline).Never use air or any gaseous medium to inflate the balloon.¿ neither the phr nor the information available suggests a design or manufacturing related cause for the reported event.Therefore, no corrective or preventive action will be taken at this time.
