As reported, a 5mmx4cm 80 powerflex pro was inserted for pre-dilation, however, it ruptured at 4 atmosphere (atm).It was within its nominal pressure.There was no patient injury.The device was replaced with a same size new non-cordis balloon catheter and the procedure was completed.This was a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) case.The lesion was the right common iliac artery.The device was discarded because the patient had (b)(6).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
A 5mm x 4cm x 80 powerflex pro was inserted for pre-dilation; however, it ruptured within nominal pressure at four atmospheres (atm).This was a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (pta) case.The lesion was the right common iliac artery.There was no patient injury.The device was replaced with a same size new non-cordis balloon catheter and the procedure was completed.The product was not returned for analysis.A product history record (phr) review of lot 82166642 revealed no anomalies or non-conformances during the manufacturing and inspection processes that can be associated with the reported event.The reported ¿balloon burst - at/below rbp¿ could not be confirmed as the device was not returned for analysis.The exact cause could not be determined.With the paucity of information available and without return of the product for analysis, it is difficult to draw a clinical conclusion between the device and the reported event.However, vessel characteristics and procedural factors may have contributed to the reported event.According to the safety information in the instructions for use ¿if resistance is met during manipulation, determine the cause of the resistance before proceeding.Balloon pressure should not exceed the rated burst pressure.The rated burst pressure is based on the results of in vitro testing.At least 99.9% of the balloons (with a 95% confidence), will not burst at or below their rated burst pressure.Use of a pressure monitoring device is recommended to prevent over pressurization.Use only the recommended balloon inflation medium.Never use air or any gaseous medium to inflate the balloon.Prior to angioplasty, the catheter should be examined to verify functionality and ensure that its size and shape are suitable for the specific procedure for which it is to be used.¿ neither the phr nor the information available suggests a design or manufacturing related cause for the reported event.Therefore, no corrective or preventive action will be taken at this time.
