Event Description
Using crutches due to pain [walking aid user].Knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed [knee effusion].Weight bearing difficulty [weight bearing difficulty].Joint range of motion decreased [joint range of motion decreased].Tingling [tingling].Pseudo septic reaction / bacterial infection [bacterial infection].Interfering all activities of daily living / unable to move out of bed [activities of daily living impaired].Knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee.[knee pain] ([condition aggravated]).Knee swelling [knee swelling].Burning / heat from her lower extremity/knee/ calf area [joint warmth].Inflammation [joint inflammation].An adverse reaction [unevaluable event].Case narrative: based on information received on (b)(6) 2018 from doctor, the report previously considered as non-valid became due to the addition of adverse event of knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed, using crutches due to pain, weight bearing difficulty, joint range of motion decreased, tingling, pseudo septic reaction / bacterial infection, interfering all activities of daily living / unable to move out of bed, knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee, knee swelling, burning / heat from her lower extremity/knee/ calf area and inflammation and this case initially considered as non-serious was upgraded to serious due to the seriousness criteria of required intervention for knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed and disability for using crutches due to pain and also the case became medically confirmed.This spontaneous case from united states was received on (b)(6) 2018 from patient.This case concerns a (b)(6) years old female patient who initiated treatment with synvisc one and after an unknown latency had an adverse reaction.Concomitant medications included cortisone.No medical history, previous medications and concurrent conditions were reported.On (b)(6) 2017, patient received treatment with intra articular synvisc one injection at a dose of 6ml, (frequency: not provided; batch/ lot number and expiry date: unknown) for primary osteoarthritis.On (b)(6) 2017, few hours after the injection, the patient experienced left and right knee pain which was associated with synvisc injections.This was her second time getting the injections.Her pain slowly increased.She tried icing and anti-inflammatories.On an unknown date after an unknown latency, she had an adverse reaction.On an unknown date in (b)(6) 2017, few days after the first infusion, the patient was now using crutches due to the pain.The pain was a 10 on a scale of 1-10.Patient described the pain as burning, sharp and stabbing and it was located all around the knees.On an unknown date in (b)(6) 2017, few days after the first infusion, it was made worse by weight bearing, bending and it was made better by ice, elevation.On an unknown date in (b)(6) 2017, few days after the first infusion, the patient had full range of motion however limited slightly in flexion due to swelling.On (b)(6) 2018, muscle strength was +5/5.Sensation was intact.Negative lachman, anterior drawer, and mcmurray's.No instability or laxity with varus or valgus stress tests.+2 effusion was noted.On the same day, 12 days after the first infusion, the patient after a comprehensive discussion of risks and options, verbal consent was obtained for an aspiration and injection.Under sterile conditions, approximately 20cc of yellow fluid was removed, 2 ml/14 mg of betamethasone was injected with 3 cc of bupivacaine hydrochloride (marcaine) and 3 cc of lidocaine.The patient tolerated the procedure well.Instructions were given to the patient on post injection care.The injection was given into the left knee and info the right knee.On an unknown date after unknown latency, patient complained of burning, tingling and heat from her left lower extremity/knee/calf area.She has been taking anti-inflammatories.The pain was 8-9 on a scale of 1 -10.On (b)(6) 2017, she had a synvisc reaction 1 month ago with a cortisone injection.She reports continued pain in the left knee.The right knee had since mostly resolved.The cortisone injection worked for a short time.Patient was recommended the following plan of an oral anti-inflammatories, naproxen (vimovo).Patient should continue to modify activities as needed.She would use ice as needed.She will follow up in 1 month.On an unknown date after unknown latency, the patient developed a pseudo septic reaction after the injections.Having said that, there was a recall lot the synvisc lot that they used on her that may have a bacterial infection and so she was here today tor consideration of an aspiration.On (b)(6) 2018, patient had not been on antibiotics and so she did give her prescription for sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (bactrim ds) today.This was tor 2 weeks.She was going to see the infectious disease doctor in the meantime.They did discuss the possibility of doing an aspiration but based on my physical exam today they don't think there was any fluid in either of her knees and so they were not sure that going in there with the needle and digging around looking for fluid was the greatest thing to do and so they were going to hold off and just treat her on antibiotics.They would see her back after she sees the infectious disease doctor.On (b)(6) 2018, patient was placed on to oral antibiotics.She continued to have sharp pains in the inside of the right knee.She had tried naproxen (vimovo) and had been using ice and elevating.The pain was a 10 on a scale of 1 -10.She described the pain as sharp and was located in the medial knee.It was made worse by everything and it was made better by nothing.It was interfering all activities of daily living (onset date: unknown; latency: unknown).They would recommend sending the patient for an mri to evaluate for a meniscus tear as well as other intra-articular pathology.The patient does understand that if there was a tear or other intra-articular pathology that was contributing to the patient's pain, operative intervention would likely be recommended.This would include a diagnostic and operative arthroscopy of the knee with correction ot the internal derangement.After review of the mri, continued conservative treatment may also be considered.This treatment may include a steroid injection and/or physical therapy.Doctor would see the patient back after their mri.On (b)(6) 2018, the pain was a 10 on a scale of 1-10.Patient described the pain as sharp and it was located in the right knee.It was made worse by walking, standing, sitting and it was made better by nothing helps the pain.She denied numbness and tingling.She had most of these issues after her synvisc injection which was the potentially tainted patch.She did apparently have some labs done recently which were ordered by doctor of infectious disease.She had not had an aspiration.She had a synvisc injection after words she had relief and over time she had severe inflammation and was unable to get out of bed due to the severe pain.No treatment had helped relieve the pain.As per mri done, underlying tricompartmental osteoarthritic changes were present which appear somewhat more prominent particularly regarding the medial joint, suspect subtle tear through the medial meniscus at the root attachment, subtle oblique tear through the posterior horn lateral meniscus and chondromalacia patella.It was reported that certainly with the elevated blood work that she had them need to consider aspiration to make sure she did not have an infection.Having said that, patient does not tolerate aspirations very well and asked about possibly doing some anesthesia tor the aspiration and as they showed her on her mri as well as based on exam she really does not have much fluid inside of her knee so they think it would be a difficult aspiration.It would be reasonable to do an arthroscopic surgery with clean up of her meniscus tears on the medial and lateral side and they would also do an aspiration to get some fluid sample to send tor culture results.On (b)(6) 2018, a diagnostic and operative arthroscopy of right knee with partial medial meniscectomy was done.After failing conservative measures, the patient elected to undergo a diagnostic operative arthroscopy of the right knee.The patient in stable condition.Corrective treatment: betamethasone, lidocaine, bupivacaine hydrochloride for knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed; not reported for an adverse reaction, interfering all activities of daily living / unable to move out of bed, using crutches due to pain; ice, elevation for weight bearing difficulty; anti-inflammatories, rest, ice, elevation for joint range of motion decreased; naproxen (vimovo), ice for tingling and burning / heat from her lower extremity/knee/ calf area; sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim for pseudo septic reaction / bacterial infection; icing, anti-inflammatories, crutches for knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee.; anti-inflammatories, rest, ice, elevation for knee swelling; ice for inflammation.Outcome: not recovered/ not resolved for knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee; recovered/ resolved for tingling; unknown for rest of the events.Seriousness criteria: required intervention for knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed and disability for using crutches due to pain.A product technical complaint was initiated with global ptc number (b)(4).The product lot number was not provided; therefore, a batch record review was not possible.Based on the lack of information provided, no capa was required.It was the requirement to review all finished batch records for specification conformance prior to release.Any out of specification result was identified and mitigated through the ncr process.Sanofi global pharmacovigilance and epidemiology continuously monitored adverse event reports with or without lot numbers, and assesses possible associations with their corresponding product lot, as part of routine safety surveillance effort to detect safety signals.This review had not indicated any safety issue.Sanofi would continue to monitor adverse events to determine if a capa was required.Additional information was received on (b)(6) 2018.Global ptc number and ptc results were added.Text was amended accordingly.Additional information was received on (b)(6) 2018 from doctor.The report previously considered as non-valid became due to the addition of adverse event of knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed, using crutches due to pain, weight bearing difficulty, joint range of motion decreased, tingling, pseudo septic reaction / bacterial infection, interfering all activities of daily living / unable to move out of bed, knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee, knee swelling, burning / heat from her lower extremity/knee/ calf area and inflammation and this case initially considered as non-serious was upgraded to serious due to the seriousness criteria of required intervention for knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed and disability for using crutches due to pain and also the case became medically confirmed.Event of knee effusion / 20 cc of yellow fluid was removed, using crutches due to pain, weight bearing difficulty, joint range of motion decreased, tingling, pseudo septic reaction / bacterial infection, interfering all activities of daily living / unable to move out of bed, knee pain / pain is burning, sharp and stabbing / pain is sharp and located in the medial knee, knee swelling, burning / heat from her lower extremity/knee/ calf area and inflammation were added with details.Action taken was updated.Patient's age was updated.Seriousness criteria was added.Patient's age was added.Therapy start date, dose and indication were added.Lab test was added.Concomitant was added.Clinical course updated.Text was amended accordingly.
