Manufacturer Narrative

The reported uncomfortable stimulation and impedance issues were not confirmed.The anchor was returned broken in 2 pieces.As this damage was observed before it was explanted, the damage is consistent with the anchor being subjected to stress, while in vivo.The source of the stress could have been the fall the patient experienced, but this could not be conclusively determined.Despite the damage, the locking mechanism of the anchor functioned as intended.
