Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluated by mfr.: the returned product consisted of a quantum maverick balloon catheter.The balloon was loosely folded with blood in the wire and inflation lumen.Microscopic inspection revealed a burst in the balloon material, 9mm in length.Inspection of the remainder of the device revealed numerous kinks in the hypotube.The manufacturing batch record review confirmed that the device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.The most probable root cause is operational context as device performance was limited due to anatomical/procedural factors.(b)(4).
