Manufacturer Narrative

A review of the complaint log shows that there were no other complaints associated with this lot number.Manufacturing review of the device history record for the reported lot shows that all units were quality released on 11/10/2016 having met all internal qc acceptance requirements.All sterilization records, and bioburden testing indicate successful sterilization process, and passing lal and product sterility results allowed the lot to be released having met all criteria for manufacturing release.The cause of the reported dehiscence cannot be conclusively determined as the device was not returned for evaluation and was utilized in an off-label manner for an atrial septal defect (asd) which led to a dehiscence.The instructions for use (20461-062014 provided with device) for the cormatrix ecm for pericardial closure states under indications for use: "the cormatrix ecm for pericardial closure is intended for the reconstruction of the pericardium".
