Description

Bridge Occlusion Balloon, REF 590-001, QTY 1, Sheath Compatibility 12F, Guidewire Compatibility 0.035 in, Working Length 90 cm, Balloon Outer Diameter 31 mm, Balloon Length 80 mmm, Rx ONLY, CE Marking, Sterile EO, UDI: 00813132024666

Reason

There is a potential for thrombus formation on balloons prepped and staged in the vasculature for long durations. All users, such as those performing lead extraction cases may not be aware of this risk. It was determined that current labeling is insufficient to ensure all potential users minimize the time the balloon remains in vasculature. If left in too long it could lead to embolization.
