E1.Initial reporter city: (b)(6).Device evaluated by manufacturer: the device was returned for analysis.A visual examination identified that the balloon was not folded which indicates that the balloon was subjected to positive pressure.No tears or holes were visible in the balloon.The device was attached to an encore inflation device and positive pressure and a pinhole leak was identified 5mm proximal of the distal markerband.An examination of the balloon material and markerbands identified no issues which could potentially have contributed to this complaint.All blades were fully bonded onto the balloon with no issues identified.No issues were noted with the tip section of the device.A visual and microscopic examination found no issue with the markerbands.A visual and tactile examination identified no issues.No other issues were identified during the product analysis.
