Plain-English summary
Abbott Medical is recalling the Abbott Navitor Titan transcatheter aortic heart valve (model NVRO-35, 35 mm). One device was distributed in the United States (New York), and nine devices were distributed to Australia, Belgium, Germany, Iran, Israel, Japan, Kazakhstan, Oman, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.
A manufacturing error allowed valves with leaflet deflection values outside the established specifications to be shipped. The defective leaflets could potentially compromise the valve's long-term durability and may result in valve failure.
