Device evaluation: a visual inspection was conducted and a kink was found on the shaft, close to the hub (not preventing the inflation/deflation of the balloon).The purging procedure was executed successfully, no leak was detected.The proximal balloon tube appeared visually deformed, not completely adherent to the shaft.Once the balloon was inflated (with a mixture 50/50 saline solution and contrast medium) it appeared completely asymmetrical with respect to the shaft.The bonding of the proximal balloon tube was analysed and they were found to be within specifications.The inflation occurred in the opposite side of the exit of the inflation tube.It was not possible to completely deflate the balloon since, once the balloon tube came in contact with the exit of inflation lumen, it prevented the deflation of the asymmetrical part of the balloon (still partially inflated).No abnormalities noted on the distal balloon, which correctly inflated and deflated.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
