(b)(4).Corrections: female added, date of event corrected, lot number changed to unk, implant date corrected.(b)(4).The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record for both lot numbers identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot.Additionally, a review of the complaint history did not indicate a lot-specific quality issue.All available information was investigated the reported partial clip movement appears to be related to the challenging patient pathology/morphology (short and thin posterior mitral leaflet/pml).The reported mitral regurgitation (mr) was likely due to the clip being partially attached/detached from pml, and the dyspnea and edema the cascading effects of mr.The reported patient effects of worsening mr, dyspnea and edema 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.
