The manufacturer was informed of the following event through mantra study database.Reportedly, a perceval plus valve size xl was implanted in the patient on (b)(6) 2024.Based on information received, patient had chb with afib on (b)(6) 2024.The patient needed a permanent pacemaker which was implanted on (b)(6) 2024 to resolve the issue.As reported, the patient's clinical history included coronary artery disease; arrhythmia: afib; systemic hypertension; diabetes mellitus: type ii, insulin dependent; dyslipidemia; renal insufficiency / renal disorder (dialysis ongoing); percutaneous coronary intervention (stenting 2019); and was in nyha class iii.Based on the information available, prior and concomitant anticoagulant/antiplatelet medications are warfarin, eliquis and aspirin.

The manufacturing and material records for the perceval plus heart valve and stent, model # pvf-xl-us, s/n # (b)(6), as they pertain to the reported event, were retrieved and reviewed by the manufacturer¿s quality engineering.The results confirmed that this valve satisfied all material, visual, and performance standards required for a (model # pvf-xl-us) perceval plus heart valve at the time of manufacture and release.Based on the information available, the definitive root cause of the reported event cannot be established.However, from the document review performed, no manufacturing deficiencies were noted.Conduction disorders are common in patients with aortic valve diseases.As a result, it is common for patients to receive permanent pacemaker implantation after aortic valve replacement.Risk factors include preexisting conducting disease and preoperative aortic regurgitation.This event is, therefore, a known, inherent risk of the procedure, and it is listed among the potential adverse events in the perceval plus ifu.
