Event or Problem Description
Through implant patient registry, it was learned that a 29mm 2700tfx aortic valve was explanted after an unknown duration due to early paravalvular aortic regurgitation.Per the information received, the patient underwent three (3) aortic valve replacements in 2015, the third replacement valve was a non-edwards mechanical valve.Edwards lifesciences maintains an implant patient registry.This registry is a patient tracking mechanism for serialized edwards implantable devices (bioprosthetic heart valves and annuloplasty rings), rather than a true post-market surveillance registry.Through the registry, edwards is notified when these devices are implanted.In addition, patient and/or device status may be reported to the registry via the implantation data cards.The information is received from various sources (e.G.Surgeon, hospital, and patient family members) and is not received in the form of a conventional "customer complaint".The information reported may or may not be related to the edwards device.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H10: additional manufacturer narrative: updated sections: d4 (expiration date), h4, and h6 (type of investigation, investigation findings, and investigation conclusions).The device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.There were no issues identified that would have impacted this event.Per the physician office, the device is not available for return.Paravalvular leak (pvl) refers to blood flowing through a channel between the structure of the implanted valve and the cardiac tissue.It may occur as a result of a lack of appropriate sealing of the valve at the annulus or improper seating.The most common reason for pvl is inadequate debridement of a calcified annulus and is not a result of device malfunction.A definitive root cause cannot be conclusively determined; however, patient factors likely caused or contributed.
