Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that on (b)(6) 2025, a 25mm navitor valve was selected for implant.There was sufficient calcium to allow anchoring of the device in the opinion of the user.During the procedure, the valve was implanted at a depth of -3/-3 mm.It was then noted that the valve had popped-up toward the aorta.The physicians think they was due to a bad release of the tabs upon final deployment and catheter removal motion.A 23mm non-abbott valve was implanted valve-in-valve to resolve the event.The patient was fine at the end of the procedure.The patient remained hemodynamically stable and there was no clinically significant delay during the procedure.
