Unique device identifier (udi): (b)(4).The mayfield skull clamp was returned for evaluation: device history record (dhr) - no abnormalities related to the reported failure.The reported complaint was confirmed from the evaluation.The hex bushing is worn and the lock still moves after unit is lock down and needs to be replaced.The observed condition is likely caused by wear and tear / improperly handling of the device.The definite root cause cannot be reliably determined.No further investigation required based on the acceptability of risk and no adverse trends identified.This will be monitored and trended going forward.
