Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Updated sections g3, g6, h6 type of investigation, investigation findings, and investigation conclusions.Regurgitation is a common manifestation of bioprosthetic valve and valved conduit dysfunction.Common intraoperative factors that may cause or contribute to acute post-procedural regurgitation include device distortion; device interaction with patient anatomy or other devices; leaflet damage, and incorrectly sized valve seated.Non-structural valve dysfunction (nsvd), endocarditis and/or thrombosis may also cause or contribute to acute post-procedural regurgitation.Complaints reported with regurgitation as the primary complaint code are not typically attributed to manufacturing-related nonconformances.A device history record (dhr) review was performed, and no relevant non-conformances were identified.There is no evidence to suggest a manufacturing defect caused or contributed to the reported event.Based on the information available, the most likely root cause is patient factors, including chronic kidney disease, hyperlipidemia.
