Event Description
|
This is filed to report the single leaflet device attachment of the first clip.It was reported that this was a mitraclip procedure to treat grade 4 degenerative mitral regurgitation (mr).There was difficulty grasping the posterior leaflet with the first mitraclip.The leaflet was grasped a bit lateral to the ideal location on the leaflet due to calcium on the leaflet.It was suspected that there was a cleft on the location of the leaflet that they wanted to grasp, which may have contributed to the difficulty grasping.The first clip was deployed.The second clip was inserted adjacent to the first clip when a single leaflet device attachment of the first clip occurred.The second clip was deployed which stabilized the first clip.Mr was reduced to 1 to 2.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.There was no additional information provided.

Manufacturer Narrative

(b)(4).The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to the reported event.Review of the complaint history did not indicate a lot-specific quality issue.The reported failure to bond/adhere is related to patient morphology/challenging anatomy (calcification on the leaflet and suspect cleft).There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
