Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Additional manufacturer narrative: stenosis, which develops progressively over time, can be due to a number of issues.Additionally, there can be a number of potential known and unknown patient related contributing factors.Structural valve deterioration (svd) is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explants and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, non-calcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes may occur singularly or concomitantly, may contribute to stenosis and/or regurgitation.Alternatively, the nonstructural dysfunction (nsvd) may also play a role in the development of valvular stenosis.The subject device is not available for evaluation as it remains implanted in the patient.The investigation is still in progress; therefore, a conclusion has yet to be established.A supplemental report will be submitted accordingly upon investigation completion.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.

It was reported that a patient with a 27mm 3000 pericardial valve, implanted in the aortic position, underwent a valve-in-valve procedure after an implant duration of nine (9) years, eight (8) months due to symptomatic severe stenosis (mean gradient 44mmhg) and degeneration.The patient presented 29 week pregnant with palpitations and dyspnea.A tavr was performed with a 26mm 9750tfx valve with no complications.Post-tavr echocardiogram revealed a mean aortic valve gradient of 17 mmhg without ai.Patient was discharged 24 hours post-procedure.Per literature review of tavr beyond fetal viability an alternative to preterm delivery in symptomatic severe aortic stenosis: this is the first reported tavr in 3rd trimester.Post taviv, the patient underwent an uncomplicate primary cesarean section(breech) at term.
