Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
H10: additional manufacturer narrative: stenosis, which develops progressively over time, can be due to a number of issues.Additionally, there can be a number of potential known and unknown patient related contributing factors.Structural valve deterioration (svd) is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explants and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, non-calcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes may occur singularly or concomitantly, may contribute to stenosis and/or regurgitation.Alternatively, the nonstructural dysfunction (nsvd) may also play a role in the development of valvular stenosis.The root cause of this event cannot be conclusively determined with the available information.The subject device is not available for evaluation, as it remains implanted in the patient.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.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.
