Potential for Transcatheter Aortic Valve (TAV) leaflet damage when performing a post-implant balloon dilatation (PID).

On 10/23/2020, the firm sent an "Urgent Medical Device Correction" Notification Letter to customers via UPS 2-day delivery informing them that the Recalling Firm has received complaint of valve leaflet damage occurring following a post-implant balloon dilatation (PID) resulting in moderate or severe aortic insufficiency which were detected acutely or during follow up. The Recalling Firm has identified the potential cause of the damage which is due to over-expansion of the narrowest portion (waist) of the Transcatheter Aortic Valves (TAVs). The Recalling Firm is also stating that depending on the choice of balloon, the physicians must consider two factors that may lead to over-expansion of the waist of the TAV: 1.The pressure the balloon is inflated to when performing PID 2.Balloon size used for PID The Recalling Firm is providing detailed guidance on considering the above two facts and is providing in an Appendix (Appendix A) with the Customer Notification Letter.
