Event or Problem Description
As part of post-market clinical follow-up (pmcf) registry for vxt and flixene grafts the following adverse event information was provided regarding a vxt graft.It was reported that the patient experienced a decline in walking distance.Diagnostic evaluation by duplex ultrasound revealed occlusion of the femoro-femoral bypass graft, and a new crossover bypass was indicated.On (b)(6)2019, the patient underwent surgical reintervention, including explantation of the occluded graft and implantation of a new bypass graft.Blood flow was successfully restored, no amputation was required, and the event was reported as resolved following the procedure.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Due to character restrictions in block e1 initial reporter: (b)(6).Based on the complaint investigation, a retrospective review was conducted as part of the post-market clinical follow-up (pmcf) registry for advanta vxt and flixene vascular grafts.The pmcf registry is a multicenter observational study evaluating the long-term safety and performance of grafts implanted between (b)(6) 2010, and (b)(6) 2021.During retrospective review of patient records, adverse events including thrombosis, graft occlusion, infection, restricted blood flow, and/or the need for additional surgical intervention were reported.The manufacturer performed an investigation in accordance with established complaint handling procedures.Review of the available information determined that the reported events are consistent with known complications associated with vascular graft implantation and are recognized adverse events identified in the device instructions for use (ifu aw011456).Review of complaints received through the pmcf registry demonstrated a common pattern in which reported events were associated with patient comorbidities, progression of underlying vascular disease, and anticipated procedural complications.No physical product, photographs, or other objective evidence were provided for evaluation, and there was no information indicating a device malfunction, manufacturing deficiency, or design-related issue.A device history record review was not required because no device malfunction or product nonconformance was alleged or identified.Complaint trending and risk management records were reviewed.The reported hazard-harm combinations are documented and adequately addressed within the dfmeca for eptfe vascular grafts.Although an increase in thrombosis and occlusion complaints was observed during pmcf data collection, the increase was attributed to the influx of retrospective cases identified through the registry rather than a change in device performance.No new or increased risk was identified, and no capa, field action, or other corrective action was initiated as a result of this investigation.Based on the available information, the manufacturer was unable to confirm a device-related cause for the reported event(s).The investigation concluded that the event was most likely associated with patient factors, disease progression, and/or known procedural risks.The device was determined to have operated within specification, and no evidence was identified to suggest that the advanta vxt or flixene vascular graft contributed to the event through a product deficiency.The investigation is complete and no further action is warranted at this time.
