Manufacturer Narrative
|
The device history records have been reviewed and this lot met all release criteria.There was nothing found to indicate there was a manufacturing related cause for this event labeling review: the review of the ifu (instructions for use), indications, warnings, precautions, cautions, possible complications, and contraindications showed that the product labeling is adequate.Investigation summary: the device was returned for evaluation.A visual inspection found the pebax to be peeled from the balloon throughout the length of the balloon.Additionally, fiber disturbance was noted on the distal cone of the balloon.Therefore, the investigation is confirmed for peeled pebax and for frayed material; no unraveled fibers were noted.The balloon was inflated with water, and the distal cone of the balloon took on an asymmetrical shape, confirming the investigation for the reported round shape of the balloon.The identified fiber disturbance contributed to the reported asymmetric inflation shape.However, the definitive root cause for the identified fiber disturbance or peeled pebax could not be determined based upon the available information.
