Manufacturer Narrative

Section h3, h6: the associated device was returned and evaluated.A visual inspection of the returned device reveals scratches and gouges in the surface of the device.A dimensional evaluation could not confirm or explain the stated failure mode.The damage/deformation of several features would not allow for accurate measurement.All measurable critical features that could be measured were within specification.The dimensional inspection of the returned device did not indicate the product was defective at the time of shipment from the manufacturing site.This device is subjected to multiple visual and dimensional inspection during processing, and this type of damage has a high likelihood of detection during these inspections.Based on the evidence provided, the unsatisfactory experience could be confirmed.A review of complaint history for the part number over the past 12 months and for the batch number based on historical data of the device did not reveal similar events for the listed device.The clinical/medical evaluation concluded that per complaint details, within five months of a tka, the patient had an i+d as well as a revision surgery in which the poly insert was exchanged.As of the date of this medical investigation, the requested clinical documentation has not been provided for evaluation.Therefore, there were no clinical factors found which would have contributed to the reported revision.The patient impact beyond that which has already been reported not be determined with the limited information.No further clinical assessment can be rendered at this time.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.At this time, we do not have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A review of the risk management and information for use files revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.Assessment of historical escalated cases concluded that there are no prior actions related to this device and failure mode.A review of the instructions for use document for unicompartmental knee system provides complete guidelines of indications, contraindications, warnings and precautions and possible adverse effects that may occur preoperative, during surgery or post operative.No details about the cause of the revision surgery were provided, therefore no factors that can contribute can be delineated.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
