    ON 04-APR-2025, PENTAX MEDICAL BECAME AWARE OF AN EVENT INVOLVING A MODEL OE-A61, LOT NUMBER 1011084 BALLOON WITHIN FRANCE IN THE EMEA REGION. DURING A PROCEDURE USING AN ULTRASOUND BRONCHOSCOPE, THE BALLOON AT THE DISTAL END RUPTURED.

THIS RESPONSE EXTENDED THE PROCEDURE TIME AND THE PATIENT'S ANESTHESIA TIME. THE FACILITY EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT THE RISK THAT A RUPTURED BALLOON MIGHT GO UNNOTICED. THE USE OF BALLOONS FROM THE SAME LOT WAS DISCONTINUED, AND THE EVENT WAS REPORTED TO PENTAX MEDICAL AND ANSM. THERE WAS NO REPORT OF PATIENT HARM. THIS EVENT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS FOR FDA REPORTABILITY; HOWEVER, SUBMISSION OF THIS REPORT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN ADMISSION THAT MEDICAL PERSONNEL, USER FACILITY, IMPORTER, MANUFACTURER OR PRODUCT CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THE EVENT.
