This will be filed to report a single leaflet device attachment (slda) and worsening mitral regurgitation.It was reported that on (b)(6) 2019, a mitraclip procedure was performed to treat degenerative mitral regurgitation (mr) with grade 4.Two mitraclip ntr were implanted without issue, reducing to grade 1.On (b)(6) 2023, the patient returned to the hospital and transesophageal echocardiogram (tee) showed one of the implanted clips had detached from the posterior leaflet and remained attached to the anterior leaflet (single leaflet device attachment/slda), causing mr to increase to a grade of 4+.No additional information was provided.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device was not returned for analysis.As it could not be determined which of the two ntr clips detached and resulted in slda, a review of the lot history records for both the ntr lots associated was performed and identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lots that would have contributed to the reported event.Additionally, a review of the complaint history for both the lots identified no similar complaints from the lots.All information was investigated and based on the information provided, a cause for the reported slda could not be determined.Mitral valve insufficiency/regurgitation (mr) resulting in dyspnea (shortness of breath) and fatigue appears to be related to patient/procedural conditions.Dyspnea, fatigue and mitral regurgitation are listed in the instructions for use (ifu) as known possible complications associated with mitraclip procedures.Hospitalization was a result of case-specific circumstances.There is no indication of a product issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
