It was reported to intervascular that during an appointment between the getinge sales representative and the initial reporter, on (b)(6) 2024, that the involved prosthesis was not good because it had bled and the patient had died.It was indicated that there were poor initial conditions, and the surgeon, used to the competitor's product had to resort to using the cardioroot.There were intraoperative coagulation disorders that were difficult to control.It should be noted that the surgeon did not provide any precise and concrete statements.He pointed out that it could have been due to many other circumstances and ruled out pure prosthesis failure and did not want to open a complaint.Moreover, the surgeon was not at the operating table until the end and could not completely rule out surgical failure.
