As part of heartflow's internal review, we identified a potential false negative.Hfid # (b)(6): the investigation determined that the left main artery bifurcation and ostial left circuflex (lcx) artery were modeled larger than what is indicated in the computed tomography (ct) data due to misinterpretation by heartflow's automated technology and inspection process.Heartflow will be notifying the customer of the product investigation results.While heartflow has identified this issue, at this moment the physician has not provided any feedback indicating a safety event with the patient.If any new information is received at a later time a supplemental medwatch report will be submitted.Heartflow's analysis instructions for use include the following warnings: due to the variability in the heartflow analysis, the output should be reviewed as one of several clinical data points to be used in conjunction with the patient's original ct images, clinical history, symptoms, and other diagnostic tests, as well as an appropriately trained clinician's clinical judgment, to evaluate the patient.
