Root cause is inconclusive; no conclusion can be made as to the extent to which the implant may have caused or contributed to the patient's postoperative course.Note, the manufacturing date (15-jan-2017) is considered to be a best estimate.This emdr represents the bard ventrio st (device 3).Additional supplemental emdrs were submitted to represent the bard flat mesh (device 1) and bard mesh - composix (device 2).Note: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all of the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.
