The following sections were updated, corrected, or added; report number should be fei not cfn, g1, g3, g6, h2, h3, h6, & h11.This is a continuation of (b)(4)/medwatch 3024985933-2025-00030.H11.Suspected sensor inaccuracy or sensor drift is the gradual deviation in pressure readings over time.In cases where sensor inaccuracy is suspected, physicians can rely on alternative clinical indicators to guide continued patient care.The patient may elect to undergo sensor recalibration via right heart catheterization at a time determined collaboratively with the care team.In this case, the sensor was not returned for evaluation as it remains implanted.The device history record (dhr) for the sensor lot was reviewed, and it was confirmed that no relevant nonconformances were associated with the sensor lot at the time of manufacture.On (b)(6) 2026 (1085 days from implant), the patient underwent a right heart catheterization (rhc) recalibration.The offset determined during the recalibration fell outside the fluid filled reference measurement error range, thereby confirming that the sensor was providing inaccurate measurements.The products instructions for use were reviewed and note that endotronix monitors sensor performance over time.When analysis suggests anomalous sensor performance, recalibration using the rhc procedure may be required.If anomalous data is confirmed through the internal monitoring program, endotronix will notify the site.The instructions for use further state that when anomalous readings are suspected, corrective recalibration using the rhc procedure may be necessary.Based on the available information no further corrective or preventative actions are required at this time.
