MAUDE Adverse Event Report: EDWARDS LIFESCIENCES EDWARDS MITRIS RESILIA MITRAL VALVE; HEART-VALVE, NON-ALLOGRAFT TISSUE

Model Number	11400M31
Medical Device Problem Code	Perivalvular Leak (1457)
Health Effect - Clinical Code	Insufficient Information (4580)
Date of Event	04/02/2025
Type of Reportable Event	Serious Injury
Event or Problem Description
It was learned via implant patient registry and medical records that a patient with a 11400m 31mm mitral valve underwent a plug placement procedure after an implant duration of 4 months due to perivalvular leak.Edwards lifesciences maintains an implant patient registry.This registry is a patient tracking mechanism for serialized edwards implantable devices (bioprosthetic heart valves and annuloplasty rings), rather than a true post-market surveillance registry.Through the registry, edwards is notified when these devices are implanted.In addition, patient and/or device status may be reported to the registry via the implantation data cards.The information is received from various sources (e.G.Surgeon, hospital and patient family members) and is not received in the form of a conventional "customer complaint." the information reported may or may not be related to the edwards device.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11.Additional narrative.Surgical/percutaneous intervention is indicated or performed, or harm occurred due to the device, or there is a device malfunction that could cause or contribute to a serious injury.This event is considered a serious injury.The device was not returned for evaluation, as it remains implanted.The investigation is still in progress; therefore, a conclusion has yet to be established.A supplemental report will be submitted accordingly upon investigation completion.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11.Additional narrative.Updated h6.Paravalvular/perivalvular leak (pvl) refers to blood flowing through a channel between the sewing ring of the implanted valve and the cardiac tissue due to an insufficient seal of the valve to the annulus.In the early postoperative period, the highest incidence of pvl has been seen in patients developing infective endocarditis, which is most likely attributed to inadequate peri-operative antibiotic prophylaxis or nosocomial infection.Annular calcification is also a risk factor for the development of peri-operative pvl, as the bioprosthesis may not seat properly after debridement.Technique related factors during implantation, such as incorrect valve sizing, have been shown to contribute to the development of pvl.Anatomical factors may also create difficulty seating the bioprosthetic valve, resulting in pvl.The anatomy of the annulus may induce mechanical stresses along the rigid bioprosthetic ring which can influence long-term valve performance and durability.A diseased or rigid annulus can potentially increase the mechanical stress on the prosthetic valve, leading to pvl.There is no evidence to suggest a manufacturing defect caused or contributed to the reported event.There is insufficient information available regarding patient or procedural factors known to cause or contribute to pvl.Therefore, a definitive root cause cannot be conclusively determined.The device history record (dhr) was reviewed and showed that this device met all manufacturing and sterilization specifications for product release prior to distribution.No issues were identified that would have impacted this event.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.
