Manufacturer Narrative

Exemption number e2019001-permits numbering sequence to begin with 10000, to avoid duplication of report numbers due to process transition.There may be gaps in numbering for reports submitted during the transition period.The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record revealed no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.The reported patient effects of atrial septal defect (asd) and respiratory distress, as listed in the mitraclip system instructions for use, are known possible complications associated with mitraclip procedures.Based on the information reviewed, the reported atrial septal defect (asd) and respiratory distress in this case appear to be related to patient morphology/pathology and/or user technique/procedural conditions; and unrelated to the device since there was no reported device issue/malfunction during the procedure.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
