(b)(4).The absorb device is currently not commercially available in the u.S; however, it
is similar to a device sold in the us.The incident information was reviewed; however, 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 identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.The reported patient effects of angina and stenosis as listed in the bioresorbable vascular scaffold (bvs) system, absorb, instructions for use are known adverse event associated with the use of a coronary scaffold in native coronary arteries.A conclusive cause for the reported patient effects and the relationship to the product, if any, cannot be determined.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the design, manufacture, or labeling of the device.
