Official wording

Reason: Potential leak in the balloon extension line. If a leak was present and went undetected during pre-use testing as outlined in the IFU, this would cause the balloon to deflate slowly following placement. If the leak went undetected by attending clinicians during use, it could result in contrast injection into the vascular or cardiac tissue which could result in serious injury or death
