Manufacturing review: 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.This is the only complaint reported to date for this lot number and failure mode.Investigation summary: the device was returned.A visual inspection found the device was received in two separate segments with a complete catheter detachment of the guidewire lumen.Therefore, the investigation is confirmed for the reported detachment.It is likely that during removal of the balloon guard, excessive force was applied, resulting in the catheter detachment.However, the definitive root cause for the reported issue could not be determined based upon available information.Labeling review: the current ifu (instructions for use) states: dilatation catheter preparation: remove the balloon guard and stylet by grasping the balloon catheter just proximal to the balloon and with the other hand, gently grasp the balloon protector and slide distally off of the balloon catheter.
