The livanova service representative assigned to the case replaced the clamp and removed it from service.It is unclear whether the clamp was tested before its removal, and no response was provided to the request to make the clamp available for further investigation.A review of the service history of the device has been conducted, indicating that no other similar events have been reported.A wider review of complaints was conducted, revealing that other occurrences of the issue have been reported to livanova.Based on all the available and collected information, it cannot be excluded that a failure of the arterial clamp is the cause of the issue.The risk is in the acceptable region.No specific action was currently deemed necessary.Livanova will keep monitoring the market.
