Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Block h6: imdrf device code a0402 captures the reportable event of a balloon burst.Block h11: investigation results: the returned cre pro wireguided dilatation balloon was analyzed, and a visual examination found that the balloon had no damages.Functional and microscopic inspection were performed, and the balloon was inflated without any problem; however, it was not able to hold pressure due to a pinhole in the balloon.The pinhole was located approximately 70 mm from the tip.No other problems with the device were noted.With all the available information, boston scientific concludes the reported event of balloon burst was not confirmed.The analysis on the returned device found that the balloon had a pinhole located approximately at 70 mm from the tip of the device.It is possible that the pinhole found in the balloon occurred due to factors encountered during the procedure or it can be due to excess pressure.Also, it is possible that interaction with any kind of a sharp surface during or previous to the procedure could create friction on the balloon and could have caused the pinhole found on the balloon.These factors and interactions could influence the damage found in the balloon.Therefore, the most probable root cause is adverse event related to procedure.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed.The review of the dhr identified that there were no process related non-conformances, scrap, or rework performed during the production that could explain the event.The reviews ensure each device meets specification prior to release for use.There is no indication the device manufacturing process contributed to the reported complaint.
