Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: additional manufacturer narrative: updated sections: b4, d4, g3, g6, h2, h4, h6 (type of investigation, investigation findings, and investigation conclusions).The device history record (dhr) review was completed, and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.There were no issues identified that would have impacted this event.Engineering evaluation summary: per (b)(4), regurgitation identified post-procedurally has many potential root causes, including structural valve deterioration (svd), non-structural valve dysfunction (nsvd), endocarditis and/or thrombosis.Regurgitation occurring during device implantation or post-procedurally is most commonly related to patient and/or procedural factors and is not typically an indication of a device malfunction related to a manufacturing non-conformance.A definitive root cause is unable to be determined, however, patient and/or procedural factors likely caused or contributed.All pertinent information available to edwards lifesciences has been submitted.
