CG Future Annuloplasty System

Indications: This device is indicated for the reconstruction and/or remodeling of pathological mitral valves. Valvular insufficiency and/or stenosis may be corrected by appropriate repair and annular remodeling.

Contraindications: Heavily calcified valves, valvular retraction with severely reduced mobility, active bacterial endocarditis.

Warnings/Precautions/Adverse Events: Only physicians who have received proper training in valve repair should use this device. Adverse events can include: thromboembolic events, dehiscence, hemolysis, stenosis, residual incompetence, heart block, endocarditis, systolic anterior motion, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, anticoagulant-related bleeding or hemorrhage.

For additional information please refer to the Instructions for Use provided with the product or contact your local Medtronic representative.

Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

Contegra Pulmonary Valved Conduit

Indications: See *Humanitarian Use Device section below.

Contraindications: None known.

Warnings/Precautions/Side Effects: Acceptable clinical performance has been established for the Contegra conduit in pediatric patients under the age of 10. Because of the possibility that complications of the device could become apparent only after extended use, a benefit-risk consideration of the long-term use of the Contegra conduit in pediatric patients over 10 years of age is particularly important. General complications reported with valved conduits and biological tissue valves implanted in the heart include: hemorrhage, bleeding diathesis due to use of anticoagulants, residual or increasing transvalvular gradients, progressive neointimal thickening and peeling, progressive stenosis and obstruction, progressive pulmonary hypertension, graft infection, endocarditis, regurgitation, hemolysis, valve malfunction, physical or chemical deterioration, thromboembolism, thrombus, conduit dilatation.

For additional information, please refer to the Instructions For Use provided with the product.

Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

*Humanitarian Use Device:
Authorized by Federal law for use in patients under 18 years of age for correction or reconstruction of the Right Ventricular Outflow Tract (RVOT) in the following congenital heart malformations: Pulmonary Stenosis, Tetralogy of Fallot, Truncus Arteriosus, Transposition with Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), Pulmonary Atresia. In addition, the Contegra Pulmonary Valved Conduit is indicated for the replacement of previously implanted but dysfunctional pulmonary homografts or valved conduits. The effectiveness of this device for these uses has not been demonstrated.

Duran AnCore Annuloplasty System

Indications: This device is indicated for the reconstruction and/or remodeling of pathological mitral and tricuspid valves. Appropriate repair and annular remodeling may correct combined valvular insufficiency and stenosis. Note: The Chordal Guide feature of the Duran AnCore® Ring/Band with Chordal Guide is indicated only for chordal replacement surgery of pathological mitral valves.

Contraindications: Heavily calcified valves, valvular retraction with severely reduced mobility, active bacterial endocarditis.

Warnings/Precautions/Adverse Events: Only physicians who have received proper training in valve repair should use this device. Adverse events can include: thromboembolic events, dehiscence, hemolysis, stenosis, residual incompetence, heart block, endocarditis, systolic anterior motion, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, anticoagulant-related bleeding or hemorrhage.

For additional information please refer to the Instructions for Use provided with the product or contact your local Medtronic representative.

Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

Hancock Porcine Valved Conduits

Indications: For use in reconstructive procedures for the repair of congenital or acquired cardiac and great vessel malformations or pathology.

Contraindications: Patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis have an increased tendency towards calcification of tissue valved conduits.

Warnings/Precautions/Adverse Events: Preclot valved conduits to minimize hemorrhage through the conduit. Reported complications include: valvular thrombosis, thromboembolism, calcification and fibrosis, valvular insufficiency, perivalvular insufficiency, valvular stenosis, leaflet perforation, significant transvalvular pressure gradients in small size bioprostheses, valve contamination, development of intraluminal peel, and hemorrhage through the graft and anastomotic sites.

For additional information, please refer to the Instructions For Use provided with the product.

Caution: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
