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 query of the complaint handling database for the reported lot revealed there is no indication of a lot specific issue.Based on the information received, the investigation determined that the reported complaints appear 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.It was reported by the account that the balloon dilatation catheter (bdc) interacted with the mildly tortuous, heavily calcified and 99% stenosed anatomy resulting in the reported difficulty advancing the device and subsequently the balloon became damaged and ruptured during inflation.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.

It was reported that the procedure performed was to treat a de novo, heavily calcified, mildly tortuous left anterior descending coronary artery that is 99% stenosed.During advancement of the 2.00 x 15 mm mini trek balloon dilatation catheter (bdc), resistance with the lesion was encountered.Once at the lesion for pre-dilatation, the balloon ruptured at 6 atmospheres during the initial inflation.The mini trek bdc was removed, and a new trek bdc 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.
