The manufacturing and material records for the crown prt aortic pericardial heart valve, model#: cna21, s/n#: (b)(4), as they pertain to the reported event, were retrieved and reviewed by quality engineering at (b)(4) corp.The results confirmed that this valve satisfied all material, visual, and performance standards required for a crown prt aortic pericardial heart valve at the time of manufacture and release.Review of the function test video for the device confirmed that the valve performed as expected and met applicable function test quality control criteria as outlined in 450-08ip002 rev aa prior to release.No anomalous behavior was identified during the open/close cycles that could contribute to the reported event.Visual inspection of the returned device was performed.No elements of non-conformity were identified.Hydrodynamic testing was performed on the returned device, and confirmed that the valve meets iso 5840 minimum requirements.No anomalies were identified during the open/close motion.The regurgitant fraction was well below iso 5840 requirements.Based on the performed analysis, the device can reasonably be excluded as a contributing factor in the reported event.The event cannot be explained by any factor intrinsic to the involved device.
