It was reported on (b)(6) 2026 that the patient presented with grade 4 functional mitral regurgitation (mr) and restricted anterior and posterior leaflet for a mitraclip procedure.During the procedure, the clip delivery system (cds) was retracted to facilitate leaflet grasping.At that time, the patient experienced cardiac arrest.Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cpr) was initiated and performed to treat the event.Subsequently, complete heart block was observed, and transcutaneous pacing was performed.A temporary transvenous pacemaker was then inserted, and the patient was stabilized.Following stabilization, the procedure was continued with mitraclip deployment.Post-procedure, the mr was reduced to grade 1-2.No clinically significant procedural delay was reported.

The device was not returned for analysis.A review of the lot history record identified no manufacturing nonconformities issued to the reported lot that would have contributed to the reported event.Based on the information reviewed, the cause of the reported cardiac arrest and heart block cannot be determined.Cardiac arrest and heart block are known possible complication associated with mitraclip procedures.Unexpected medical interventions were the result of case-specific circumstances.There is no indication of a product issue with respect to manufacture, design or labeling.
