Manufacturer Narrative
|
Additional information was received which indicated that 70% systemic right ventricular (rv) hypertension from moderate stenosis at the level of the pulmonic valve had also developed.
The condition resulted in a balloon aortic valvuloplasty (bav) nine years, six months and one day following the implant of the valve.
An 18-millimeter (mm) x4 centimeter (cm) non-medtronic balloon was inflated to 12 standard atmosphere (atms).
Trivial gradient (12 millimeters of mercury (mmhg)) was present post procedure.
As reported, the bav was successful with good results.
If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
