Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record revealed no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to this event.Based on available information, the cause of the reported death, mitral valve regurgitation, and heart failure were unable to be determined.The reported patient effects of death, mitral regurgitation, and heart failure, as listed in the mitraclip system instructions for use, are known possible complications associated with mitraclip procedures.The reported unexpected medical intervention was results of case-specific circumstances.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to manufacture, design, or labeling.
