Medtronic received information from a literature article regarding an evaluation of the impact of incomplete revascularization on ischemic and bleeding events following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (tavr).All data were collected from a single center between november 2012 and december 2013 and then from june 2015 to june 2017.The study population included 311 patients and was predominantly female with a median age of 85 years.Of those, 115 patients were implanted with medtronic transcatheter valves: corevalve or evolut r.No serial numbers were provided.A total of 170 deaths occurred during a follow-up of approximately three years.Cardiovascular deaths accounted for 45 of the 170 overall deaths.No further details were provided about any of the deaths.Based on the available information, medtronic product was not directly associated with the deaths.Among all patients, adverse events included: valve-in-valve implantation for an unknown reason, post-implant balloon aortic valvuloplasty (reimpaction) for significant paravalvular leak (pvl) during tavr, percutaneous coronary intervention performed at an unspecified time after tavr, myocardial infarction, stroke, rehospitalization for heart failure, mild to severe pvl after tavr, immediate major and/or life-threatening bleeding (immediate: within 30 days after tavr), late major and/or life-threatening bleeding (late: more than 30 days after tavr), and bleeding requiring red blood cell transfusion (more than two units).Based on the available information, medtronic product may have been associated with the adverse events.No additional adverse patient effects or product performance issues were reported.
