Analysis: the sample was not released from the user facility; therefore, a device evaluation is unable to be performed.A lot history review revealed this is the only complaint associated with this lot.A review of the device history record (dhr) indicates the lot was manufactured to specification.Conclusion: the actual sample was not released from the user facility.The dhr found nothing to indicate a manufacturing related cause for this event.Although requested, the physical sample, patient demographics, and additional event details were not available.If additional information becomes known to the manufacturer, a supplemental report will be provided with all relevant information.The information provided by bard represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bard.

It was reported a lutonix percutaneous transluminal drug coated balloon (dcb) dilatation catheter allegedly was difficult to deflate after treatment of the subclavian artery.The health care professional (hcp) predilated the target lesion prior to dcb treatment.Upon removal of the lutonix dcb through the introducer sheath, allegedly the balloon portion of the device detached from the catheter shaft.It is unclear at this time if the balloon completely detached from the catheter or if a balloon bond separated from the catheter shaft.The lutonix dcb was requested to be returned for evaluation, but at this time the facility will not release the sample to the manufacturer.Although requested, the physical sample, patient demographics, and additional event details were not available.No adverse patient outcomes were reported.
