(b)(4).The iab catheter was returned completely separated in three parts with the membrane completely unfolded and blood on the interior and exterior of the catheter.The extension tubing was also returned.A portion of the extracorporeal tubing was without the male luer.A large tear was observed on the membrane near the proximal end approximately 5.6cm from the rear seal.An underwater leak test of sections of the balloon, catheter and y-fitting was performed and no additional leaks were detected besides the large tear on the membrane.The tear found on the membrane appears to have been caused by a sharp object.This may have occurred during iab removal from the patient.We were unable to test the complete iab catheter for the reported problem due to parts of the device not returned and its returned condition.(b)(4).Supplement - device evaluation.
