Additional Manufacturer Narrative

H11: additional manufacturer narrative: updated: b4, g3, g6, h2, h6 (type of investigation, investigation findings, 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.There is insufficient information available regarding patient or procedural factors known to cause or contribute to regurgitation.Therefore, a definitive root cause cannot be conclusively determined.The device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.There were no issues identified that would have impacted this event.
