Plain-English summary
Abbott Vascular has recalled certain MitraClip G4 and TriClip G4 cardiac repair devices due to increased clip locking malfunctions. These devices are used in cardiac procedures to repair mitral regurgitation. The malfunction prevents the device from establishing the final arm angle and clip opening while locked, which may result in unsuccessful procedures.
Contributing factors to the malfunction may include clip locking component material properties and certain use conditions. An unsuccessful clip procedure could lead to recurrence of severe mitral regurgitation, device embolization, or tissue injury.
The recall applies to all lots of the affected devices, with 767 units distributed worldwide, including throughout the United States. Healthcare providers with these devices should contact Abbott Vascular for information regarding the recall.
