Event Description
|
This is filed to report the atrial septal defect (asd) that occurred during the procedure.It was reported that this was a mitraclip procedure to treat functional mitral regurgitation (mr) with a grade of 4.The steerable guiding catheter (sgc) and the clip delivery system (cds) were advanced into the anatomy.After the leaflets were grasped, the atrial pressure increased, which caused the atrial septum puncture to become enlarged.The case was aborted with no clips implanted.The mr remained at 4, with an enlarged atrial septal defect (asd).It was confirmed that the patient was stable post procedure.The heart team will evaluate the patient at a later date; however, no further treatment has been planned.No additional information was provided.

(b)(4).The device was not returned for evaluation.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot.The reported patient effect of atrial septal defect, as listed in the mitraclip system instructions for use, is a known possible complication associated with mitraclip procedures.Based on the information reviewed, the reported patient effect of atrial septal defect appears to be a result of procedural conditions due to the increased atrial pressure that was created after grasping.Based on the information reviewed, there is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
