(b)(4).Device evaluated by mfr: returned product consisted of a quantum maverick balloon catheter in two pieces.The balloon was tightly folded.The hub, hyptotube, port/exit notch, inner/outer shaft were microscopically and tactile inspected.Inspection revealed numerous kinks in the hypotube and the hypotube was separated at 78cm from the tip of the device.The fracture faces of the separation were oval, as if kinked prior to separation.Inspection of the remainder of the device presented no other damage or irregularities.The investigation conclusion is operational context as the product meets the design and manufacture specification but due to anatomical/procedural factors encountered during the procedure, performance was limited.(b)(4).
