Manufacturer Narrative

Product analysis:the device remains implanted, therefore no product analysis can be performed.Conclusion: conduction disturbances are known potential adverse effects associated with any cardiac or thoracic procedure (open or catheter-based) and can be resolved with medical treatment or the implant of a permanent pacemaker (with the risk-benefit ratio in favor of implant of the percutaneous aortic valve).A conduction disturbance does not indicate a device malfunction or potential manufacturing issue.The device remains implanted.(b)(4).
