The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record revealed no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history did not indicate a lot-specific quality issue.It should be noted that the mitraclip instructions for use, warns ¿the clip arms may open slightly (~5°) and then remain in a stable position.If arms open more than slightly, close the clip to the desired arm position and re-establish final arm angle.¿ based on available information, the reported improper or incorrect procedure or method was associated with implanting the mitraclip even after failed efaa.The cause of the reported unintended movement (clip opened during efaa) could not be determined.The device is included in the correction notice issued by abbott on 06 sep 2022 for clips not being able to establish final arm angle (efaa) and/or clip opening while locked (cowl) with the mitraclip and triclip delivery system(s).Medical device code (b)(4) - failure to follow steps / instructions.
