The following sections were updated/corrected/added: b4, g3, g6, h2, h6, and h11.Additional type of investigation codes that were unable to be added in h6: labelling review.The complaint for delivery system and/or guidewire interacts with conduction system was confirmed with empirical evidence through information provided by an edwards field clinical specialist.The device history record review was completed, and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections.No nonconformances related to the complaint event were identified.Excessive movement during advancement or placement of the guidewire may result in interactions with vasculature or cardiac structures leading to conduction disturbances.Therefore, available information suggests that operational context (guidewire interaction with cardiac structures and pre-existing patient factors) is a contributing factor to the reported event.Since no manufacturing non-conformances were found and no labeling, training, or ifu deficiencies were identified, no preventative or corrective actions were required.
