Manufacturer Narrative

(b)(6). Returned product consisted of a quantum maverick balloon catheter. The shaft, hypotube, tip and balloon were microscopically and visually examined. The balloon was tightly folded. There were numerous hypotube kinks throughout the device. There was a complete hypotube separation 48cm distal of the strain relief. The hypotube fracture surfaces were ovaled, which suggests the device was kinked prior to separation. Inspection of the remainder of the device presented no other damage or irregularities.

Event Description

Reportable based on device analysis completed on 20-may-2019. It was reported that shaft kink occurred. The target lesion was located in the right coronary artery. A 2. 5mmx 15mm quantum maverick balloon catheter was used but shaft kink was noted. The procedure was completed with another of the same device. No patient complications were reported and patient status was stable. However, returned device analysis revealed a hypotube separation.
