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.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no similar incidents reported from this lot.Based on the available information, a cause for the reported single leaflet device attachment (slda) and poor image resolution could not be determined.The reported patient effects of dyspnea, edema, and recurrent mitral regurgitation (mr) appear to have been cascading events of the reported slda.The reported patient effects of dyspnea, edema, and recurrent mr as listed in the mitraclip system instructions for use, are known possible complications associated with mitraclip procedures.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.The additional device referenced is filed under a separate medwatch report number.
