Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation ¿ evaluation.Reviews of the dimensional verification, complaint history, device history record, drawing, instructions for use (ifu), manufacturer¿s instructions, quality control, specifications, and a functional test & visual inspection of the returned device were conducted during the investigation.The visual inspection of the returned package confirmed that one ptas-35-135-7-14.0 was returned for investigation.Biomatter was present throughout the device.The balloon was inflated with water and a pinhole leak was noted near the middle of the balloon, approximately 6.0cm from the proximal bond.The balloon was then inflated with air in a water filled beaker to photograph the leak.The pinhole in the balloon material was visible as well.Additionally, a document based investigation evaluation was performed.There is no evidence to suggest the product was not made to specifications.A review of the device history record showed one nonconforming event which could potentially contribute to this failure mode.This nonconformance was for proximal bond damage.While this is potentially related, the affected device was scrapped and not replaced prior to order completion.It should also be noted there were no other reported complaints for this lot number.Furthermore, reviews of the manufacturer¿s instructions, drawings, quality control procedures, and overall device history file were conducted, and no gaps were discovered.Through this review, cook has determined that appropriate measures are in place to prevent this failure.Moreover, an ifu is provided with the device, which states ¿for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) of lesions in peripheral arteries including iliac, renal, popliteal, infrapopliteal, femoral, and iliofemoral as well as obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae." it goes on to say, ¿if balloon pressure is lost and/or balloon rupture occurs, deflate balloon and remove balloon and sheath as a unit." based on the information provided and the examination of the returned product, investigation has concluded that a root cause could not be established.Measures are being conducted to address this failure mode.We will continue our monitoring of similar complaints and have notified the appropriate personnel of this event.Per the quality engineering risk assessment no further action is required.This report is required by the fda under 21 cfr part 803.This report is based on unconfirmed information submitted by others.Neither the submission of this report nor any statement made in it is intended to be an admission that any cook device is defective or malfunctioned; that a death or serious injury occurred; or that any cook device caused or contributed to; or is likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if a malfunction occurred.
