Event or Problem Description

|
It was learned through the implant patient registry that a 23mm 11500a aortic valve was explanted after an implant duration of 1 year, 9 months due to unknown reason.The explanted valve was replaced with a 23mm 11060a aortic valved conduit.The patient was reported to be in recovery post-procedure.Per the implantation data card, there was no deficiency in the original device.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.
