Manufacturer Narrative

Review of manufacturing record for the lot in question did not show any deviations to the manufacturing process or errors.There were no manufacturing changes during this time period to suggest a change on the product.No additional information was provided by the initial reporter.While anteris continues to monitor, it appears at this time the event to be unlikely related to the product but rather associated with the complex intervention and challenges of vascular reconstruction in tetralogy of fallot patients.Stenosis of repair causing obstruction of flow through repaired vessel is listed as a potential hazard.The potential cause is intimal hyperplasia caused by vessel injury during reconstruction or repair.Flow obstruction is also listed as a potential adverse event in the product ifu.
