Dates estimated.Unique device identifier (udi#): in the absence of a reported part number, the udi cannot be calculated.There was no reported device malfunction and the product was not returned as the scaffold remains in the anatomy.A review of the lot history record and complaint history could not be conducted because the part and lot number were not provided.The reported patient effects of thrombosis and myocardial infarction, as listed in the bioresorbable vascular scaffold (bvs) system, absorb, instructions for use are known adverse events associated with the use of a coronary scaffold in native coronary arteries.Based on the case information, a conclusive cause for the reported patient effects, and the relationship to the product, if any, cannot be determined and the treatment appears to be related to the circumstances of the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to design, manufacture or labeling of the device.The absorb device is currently not commercially available in the u.S; however, it is similar to a device sold in the u.S.The xience device and the additional adverse patient effect of death referenced are being filed under separate medwatch report numbers.Literature attachment.Article title "very long-term outcome of absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold vs.Everolimus-eluting metallic stent in st-segment elevation myocardial infarction: 5-year results of the bvs-examination study"na.
