Updated data: h6 - results and conclusion codes h10 - conclusion: a medical safety assessment was performed and upon review of the information provided and per the implanting physician's assessment, the left ventricle (lv) perforation was not related to the evolut r valve or delivery catheter system (dcs) but was related to a non-medtronic (mdt) guidewire.Upon review of the information provided, the femoral access site pseudoaneurysm is not related to the evolut r valve however, relatedness to the dcs is unknown.Vascular complication, including ventricular perforation, and access site complication, including pseudoaneurysm, are known potential risks associated with the implantation of the evolut r valve and all reported adverse events (ae) and appropriate severities are documented in the risk management files and instructions for use.The subject dcs was not returned to medtronic for analysis and as such no analysis could be performed.Procedural images were not provided for review.Cardiac tamponade, bleeding, perforation and pseudoaneurysm, are known potential adverse patient effects per the evolut pro system instructions for use (ifu), and are typically related to patient factors (anatomy, comorbidities, etc.), and/or procedural effects (sheath used, user technique, puncture cut location, etc.).In this case, it was reported that the lv perforation was caused by the guidewire (non-medtronic).Per the physician, neither the valve nor the delivery catheter system (dcs) contributed to the tamponade.As a result of the stroke, hypotension and subsequent cerebral hypo-perfusion were reported.The cardiac tamponade contributed to the stroke.There was no information to suggest a device malfunction or a failure to meet manufacturing specifications was related to these events.The lv perforation resulted in the secondary/cascading event of cardiac tamponade and stroke (due to cerebral hypoperfusion and hypotension from the cardiac tamponade).In addition, there was a femoral access site pseudoaneurysm that required surgical intervention which is not related to the lv perforation.Unable to assess relatedness of the dcs to the vascular complication but it is not related to the valve.The patient had significant bleeding requiring 8 units of packed red blood cells (prbcs).Most likely due to the combination of the lv perforation and vascular injury.Stroke is a known potential adverse effect per the device ifu, with a variety of factors that can influence its onset.It was reported that the cardiac tamponade contributed to the stroke.No treatment was reported.Hypotension is a known potential adverse effect per the device ifu.It is an effect that is highly dependent on the patient's pre-procedural condition and can occur despite a normally-functioning device or model implant procedure.The patient has a history of dyslipidemia and hypotension, which ae likely contributing factors.No treatment was reported.There is no information to suggest a device quality deficiency that may have caused or contributed to this event.This event does not allege a device misuse or malfunction occurred.Medtronic is submitting this report to comply with fda reporting regulations under 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.This report is based upon information obtained by medtronic, which the company may not have been able to fully investigate or verify prior to the date the report was required by the fda.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to obtain more complete information and has provided as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.In particular, this report does not constitute an admission by anyone that the product described in this report has any ¿defects¿ or has ¿malfunctioned¿.These words are included in the fda 3500a form and are fixed items for selection created by the fda to categorize the type of event solely for the purpose of regulatory reporting.Medtronic objects to the use of these words and others like them because of the lack of definition and the connotations implied by these terms.This statement should be included with any information or report disclosed to the public under the freedom of information act.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
