MalfunctionSep 29, 2026Detachment of Device or Device Component
On (b)(6) 2026, a 64-year-old male patient was prepared for a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) procedure using a Conquest 40 balloon catheter via a right arm arteriovenous fistula. Prior to patient use, during device preparation, the Conquest balloon catheter was advanced through the sheath; however, the balloon failed to inflate, and fluid leakage was observed from the hub due to a crack. It was further reported that a complete fracture of the balloon catheter was identified. The device was not used on the patient. The procedure was subsequently completed using another balloon catheter, resulting in a procedural delay. There was no reported patient contact.
