Problem code 1504 captures the reportable issue of balloon hole.A visual examination of the returned complaint device found that the balloon was noted to be burst.No damages were found on the catheter of the device.Functional analysis could not be performed due to the condition of the returned device.This failure is likely due to factors or conditions related to procedure such as handling of the device, the technique used by the physician during the procedure, the amount of strength applied by the physician during the movement of the balloon, and/or the interaction between the scope and the balloon could have caused the reported event, leading the balloon to burst.Therefore, the most probable root cause is adverse event related to procedure.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.
