Product analysis: the inpact admiral device was returned for analysis.The device returned with blood and residue visible in the catheter and balloon material.A 0.035 inch guidewire was loaded via the distal tip and advanced through the catheter with no issues noted.Visual inspection confirmed a longitudinal tear on the distal balloon material.The tear started approximately 1.6cm proximal to the distal tip and extended for 5.8cm proximally.Lead in scratches were evident proximal and distal to the tear site.The balloon material was jagged and uneven along the length of the tear.Negative prep did not detect the presence of a leak and it was not possible to pressurize the balloon, most likely due to crystallized residue and contrast in the inflation lumen.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
