Investigation results: device analysis findings: an fg maverick 2 mr, 2.00mm x 20mm was returned for analysis.A visual and tactile inspection identified the balloon was subjected to positive pressure and returned in a deflated state, and a microscopic inspection identified a pinhole above the distal markerband when attempting to inflate.A visual and tactile inspection of the hypotube shaft identified no kinks or damages.A microscopic examination of the shaft polymer extrusion identified no kinks or damages.No issues or damages of the tip profile.A microscopic examination of the distal and proximal markerbands identified no damage.A leakage testing identified the device soaking in the waterbath at 37 degrees.The device was attached to an encore inflation unit and an attempt was made to inflate the balloon however a pinhole was identified above the distal markerband.The encore device was verified before and after use using the druck gauge.Device history record review: it was confirmed that this device met manufacturing specification prior to distribution and there no manufacturing deviations which could have contributed to the reported event.Labeling review: review of the instructions for use (ifu) confirmed there was relevant content and sufficient guidance with respect to the circumstances described within this complaint.No updates are required to the ifu as a result of this event.Risk review: a risk review was performed, and it confirmed that the event was defined in the risk documentation and is recorded accordingly in the product record review.This event type has been accounted for during product risk analysis to support acceptable risk benefit for the product.Investigation conclusion: this investigation is assigned a conclusion code of adverse event related to patient condition due to anatomical factors.This code was selected as the most probable complaint cause based on the information available.Device analysis confirmed the reported allegation as a pinhole was identified above the distal markerband.It is likely the patient lesion anatomy contributed to the reported event.The lesion was severely tortuous and severely calcified with a stenosis of 85%.
