    Reason

    The firm has received six (6) complaint reports from customers indicating difficulty removing the balloon protector sleeve from the catheter (e.g., excessive force required to remove the protector sleeve). If the balloon is damaged while removing the protector sleeve and the catheter is subsequently used in a patient procedure, patient harm may potentially occur, including perforation of vessels, foreign body in patient, embolism, risks associated with surgical intervention, or delay to treatment/therapy.
