Device evaluated by mfr: returned product consisted of a quantum maverick balloon catheter with a product mandrel and a balloon protector.The balloon was tightly folded.Microscopic inspection found no damage or irregularities.Functional testing was performed and the device was brought to rated burst pressure (rbp).The device held pressure for 5 minutes and did not leak or lose pressure.There is no indication the device was inflated over rated burst pressure.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The root cause is not confirmed as there was no evidence of the alleged issue or any anomalies which could have contributed to the reported difficulty.(b)(4).
