Additional information: d10, h3, h6; an event of the leaflet mobility being interfered with by the native posterior leaflet was reported.Morphological and hydrodynamic examination indicated the valve met abbott specifications.The device history record was reviewed to ensure that each manufacturing and inspection operation was performed and the product met all specifications at the time of commercialization.Hydrodynamic testing at the time of manufacturing and upon return to abbott indicated the valve functioned normally.This test ensures proper leaflet coaptation and hemodynamic performance.Information from the field indicated that the leaflet movement was inhibited due to interference by the posterior leaflet.
