Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: additional manufacturer narrative: updated sections : g3,g7, h2, h6 ( type of investigation) corrected sections : b5, h6(clinical code, device code , investigation findings, investigation conclusions).Intermediate or late endocarditis greater than 60 days post implant occurs due to the implant being seeded from an infection or microbial contamination from elsewhere in the patients body and is not in any way related to the sterilization or packaging process of the device.An engineering evaluation is not required because there is no allegation of a malfunction which could be related to a manufacturing non-conformance and/or one was not suspected or confirmed through investigation; no labeling non-conformance/deficiency; no use-related issue with a hazardous situation; no device-related infection; and no evidence of a product failure with regard to design, reliability, or use error.A definitive root cause cannot be conclusively determined; however, patient factors likely caused or contributed.The subject device is not available for evaluation.A device history record (dhr) review is not required because there is no allegation of a malfunction which could be related to a manufacturing non-conformance and/or one was not suspected or confirmed through investigation; no labeling non-conformance/deficiency; no device-related infection; and no evidence of a product failure with regard to design, reliability, or use error.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.
