Manufacturer Narrative

H11: additional manufacturer narrative: the device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.Tissue degeneration-related structural deterioration, either calcific or non-calcific, are common chronic failure modes for this type of bioprosthetic heart valve.Operational mechanical stress and biological factors are generally believed to be the major contributors to the non-calcific bioprosthetic tissue degeneration.Structural valve deterioration (svd) can, and typically does, lead to chronic central leaks over a period of time.Svd is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explant and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, noncalcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes may occur singularly or concomitantly.Degeneration-related structural deterioration is most commonly related to patient factors and is not usually an indication of a device malfunction related to a manufacturing deficiency.The instructions for use (ifu) have been reviewed and no inadequacies have been identified with regard to warnings, contraindications, and the directions/conditions for the successful use of the device.The reported type of event is included in the ifu.The most likely cause is patient factors, including hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease.
