    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    EDWARDS LIFESCIENCES MAINTAINS AN IMPLANT PATIENT REGISTRY. THIS REGISTRY IS A PATIENT TRACKING MECHANISM FOR SERIALIZED EDWARDS IMPLANTABLE DEVICES (BIOPROSTHETIC HEART VALVES AND ANNULOPLASTY RINGS), RATHER THAN A TRUE POST-MARKET SURVEILLANCE REGISTRY. THROUGH THE REGISTRY, EDWARDS IS NOTIFIED WHEN THESE DEVICES ARE IMPLANTED. IN ADDITION, PATIENT AND/OR DEVICE STATUS MAY BE REPORTED TO THE REGISTRY VIA THE IMPLANTATION DATA CARDS. THE INFORMATION IS RECEIVED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES (E.G. SURGEON, HOSPITAL, AND PATIENT FAMILY MEMBERS) AND IS NOT RECEIVED IN THE FORM OF A CONVENTIONAL "CUSTOMER COMPLAINT". THE INFORMATION REPORTED MAY OR MAY NOT BE RELATED TO THE EDWARDS DEVICE. IN THIS CASE, IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE DEVICE WAS EXPLANTED ON THE SAME DAY OF SURGERY. THROUGH FOLLOW-UP WITH THE HEALTH-CARE PROVIDER, IT WAS INDICATED THAT THERE WAS A SIZING ISSUE: "DID NOT FIT". UNFORTUNATELY, NO OTHER DETAILS WERE PROVIDED. FURTHERMORE, THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY ALLEGATIONS OF A PRODUCT MALFUNCTION.
