The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history revealed no other similar incidents.The investigation was unable to determine a conclusive cause for the reported inflation issue.Factors that could contribute to inflation issue may include, but are not limited to, manufacturing, issues with the inflation device or patient anatomical morphology.It is possible that the shaft was bent or entrapped in the anatomy causing the inflation lumen to become closed-off; however, this could not be confirmed.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to design, manufacture or labeling of the device.Device available for return changed from yes to no.
