Evaluation summary: the nanocross balloon dilatation catheter was received for evaluation.No ancillary devices or cine images from the procedure were received for evaluation.The nanocross dilatation catheter was received with sanguine residue within the inflation portion of the y-manifold, sanguine residue/fluid within the balloon chamber, and the balloon chamber in a post-inflation profile.Attempts were made to inflate the balloon without a guidewire as a guidewire could not pass through the guidewire lumen.The balloon chamber started to inflate at approximately 4 atm (nominal pressure = 8 atm rated burst pressure = 14 atm).However, at this point a pinhole leak was noted in the proximal end of the balloon chamber.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
